Our Objectives
Our Organization
In the summer of 1988 National Institute for The Empowerment of Persons with Intellectual Disability (Divyangjan) – NIEPID [formally National Institute for the Mentally Handicapped – NIMH] counseled a group of 8 parents to form a registered association to administer and run a special education cum vocational training center for their mentally challenged children. After series of counseling, discussion, planning and rehearsals; these parents who had mentally challenged children took on a task. The task was to start a school, which would contribute to the development of such children and help them become a part of society. “Not an easy task!” said the cynics. This Group of parents sometimes agreed, sometimes didn’t, but never gave up! And that’s when the Parents Association for the Mentally Handicapped, PAWMENCAP was born.
PAWMENCAP has relentlessly endeavored to uplift the standard of living of the intellectually impaired and achieve its vision and Mission. Today PAWMENCAP is proud to serve 285 intellectually impaired in its projects with many more waiting.
Our Approach
PAWMENCAP is run and administered by an elected body of parents imparting meticulously planned training in socialization, self-help skills, speech & occupational therapy, vocational training and rehabilitation of mentally challenged persons of all severity levels belonging to all socio-economic strata.
In PAWMENCAP projects, the foremost motto for the disabled is respectable time employment, free expression of will, freedom to act and relish the life. Trained professionals and therapists counsel the parents, identify the goals and trades, and train the students and parents to achieve them steadily but surely. The achievements are assessed every quarter to streamline the response and score the merit. Students from all walks of life are encouraged at the school and are trained to achieve their personal milestones in a professionally planned manner.
