See you all !!

Handi-Care International has been serving children with disabilities in India for over 12 years with great results. Please visit our website to know more about Handi-Care International.

Handi-Care Board has been discussing the possibilities of expanding the services to children and youth of South Asian origin located in GTA and surrounding areas. However, we need to know the needs of such persons so that we can design programs to address their needs.

Handi-Care Board invites you and others known to you to participate in a forum for this purpose and share with us your input for such programs. The program will begin with presentations by a few people who are experienced and knowledgeable in this area; they will cover some topics of interest such as:

· Employment of persons with disabilities.

· Issues of care givers to disadvantaged children etc. to mention a few.

This will be followed by small-group discussions and socialising.
