Social Change and Development (SCAD) – Fostering Inclusivity Through Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR)

At Social Change and Development (SCAD), we are committed to creating a more inclusive and compassionate society. Our Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) program is a testament to this commitment, as it brings transformative change to the lives of children and adults with special needs in the Tirunelveli and Tuticorin Districts.

Our CBR Initiative: A Holistic Approach to Empowerment

Our CBR program encompasses a comprehensive range of initiatives aimed at uplifting and supporting individuals with disabilities. From therapeutic interventions to awareness creation, we focus on identifying those in need of corrective surgery, assisting them in accessing available disability schemes, and advocating for government support.

Empowering Lives, One Camp at a Time

Through our CBR program, we have provided specialized care to more than 13,300 children and adults through 486 camps. These camps serve as a lifeline for individuals with special needs, offering essential services such as physiotherapy, speech therapy, special education, and more. Our holistic approach ensures that individuals receive the support they need to lead fulfilling lives.

Reaching the Remote Villages

We understand that access to healthcare and support can be limited in remote villages. To bridge this gap, we operate two mobile CBR units that deliver essential healthcare services directly to these underserved communities in Tirunelveli and Tuticorin Districts. Our focus remains on differently-abled individuals, and our services aim to improve their quality of life.

Supporting Access to Government Schemes

In addition to our direct services, we also assist individuals with disabilities in accessing various government schemes designed to support their unique needs. We believe that by advocating for these individuals and connecting them with available resources, we can create a more inclusive and supportive society.
