Four impactful days of capacity building were successfully conducted, focusing on strengthening care at home through knowledge and practical skills. The 2-day Caretaker Training brought together 30 participants, focusing on care for individuals with stroke, spinal cord injury, and cerebral palsy. The sessions covered essential areas including self-care and hygiene, proper positioning, wheelchair use, and simple exercises that can be safely practiced at home, empowering caregivers to support daily living with confidence.

This was followed by a 2-day Autism Training in Panchkhal, designed specifically for parents and caregivers. With 14 participants currently residing in Panchkhal, the training aimed to build a deeper understanding of autism and emphasized practical, home-based techniques. As autism requires continuous care and consistent practice, the sessions highlighted the crucial role of loved ones in a child’s development and well-being.

Three-year-old Sakshi from Duhabi Municipality was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP) during a disability assessment camp organized by the municipality. At the time, she could sit on her own but standing and walking felt like a distant dream.

With continuous physiotherapy, regular exercises, and support from a standing frame, Sakshi began taking small but powerful steps forward. Today, she can stand with minimal support and even walk a little.

Her determination, paired with her family’s unwavering support, is opening new doors. The next milestone? Admission to a nearby school, where Sakshi’s journey of learning and growing will continue.

Because with the right support, every small step can lead to a big future.
