Services for Parents

Collaborating with Caregivers

No family is automatically wired to manage a child with disabilities and the situation shakes the foundation of the family. In addition to the distress of a diagnosis, the family is forced to reckon and prepare for the cultural and financial repercussions as well. At SPASTN, we follow a  Person And Family Centered Care [P&FCC] approach and we provide the families and most importantly the mother of the child with a seamless support system. 

 

Our teachers and therapists consider themselves as extensions of the family while providing the primary caregiver with all the training required to care for their child.

Training Parents in Self-advocacy to enable them to break attitudinal, physical barriers.

Empowering parents with access to disability support schemes or other mechanisms.

Providing parents with the opportunity to be actively involved in assessment, intervention, learning and training of their disabled child.

For those parents who are from a disadvantage section of society, we provide social and financial resource support linkages.
