A movement towards an inclusive society for persons with and without disabilities.
The story, vision, mission and objectives behind the Association of Rehabilitation Professionals and Parents.
The Association of Rehabilitation Professionals and Parents (ARPP) was founded in 2015 with the thought of an inclusive society that provides equal opportunity, full participation and protection of rights for persons with and without disabilities. We believe in equality and liberty for all humanity.
ARPP brings together special educators, therapists, rehabilitation professionals and parents of children with special needs under one roof, because lasting change happens when the people closest to a problem are the ones designing its solution.
From advocating for the Rehabilitation Professionals for Disabilities Act, ARPP works at the intersection of policy, education and grassroots community support — with an advocacy reach across India.
A society where every person — with or without disability — participates fully, on equal terms, in education, work and community life.
To facilitate inclusive education for children with special needs, and to advocate for the trained professionals and policies needed to make it real.
Our objectives translate that belief into a working agenda — one that spans classrooms, universities, health centres and government policy.
Overall development of persons with disabilities and other disadvantaged groups of society.
Inclusive education for children with special needs, within mainstream, inclusive classrooms.
Appointment of Special Educators in every school to meet the needs of children with disabilities.
Therapeutic units and early-intervention centres at health centres in every block of the country.
"ARPP was founded with the thought of an inclusive society that provides equal opportunity, full participation and protection of rights for persons with and without disabilities. We believe in equality and liberty for all humanity." "Education is a virtue of success, reaching every stage of life without discrimination. Society has come to recognise its value — and its power to enrich us all."
