From the Managing Trustee’s Desk
We envision a world where persons with disabilities experience the same opportunities and access to life’s essentials as anyone else. We are committed to securing not just jobs but a better standard of living for PwDs, encompassing access to education, sports, public spaces, and transportation without barriers. We believe that inclusion is not a luxury; it’s a fundamental right. We strive to break down physical, social, and economic barriers that limit the potential of PwDs, ensuring they can live their lives to the fullest, with dignity & independence.
