Parents Association for Welfare of the Mentally Retardrd, Rourkela is an NGO that works in the field disability particularly in intellectual disability. Formed in 1996, it got registered in 1998 and since then has been a partner to Home and Hope- a special school for the mentally retarded in Rourkela. It has been running a Vocational Training cum Production Centre- with financial assistance from NIMH, Secunderabd- in the premises of Home and Hope since 1996. This centre caters to the needs of adults with intellectual disability, cerebral palsy and autism. The Association has also been a partner in running the High Risk Baby Clinic in IGH for early identification and intervention of developmental disabilities. Many lateral entries in this clinic from the surrounding areas of Rourkela stimulated the professionals to conclude that the number of disabled persons in the villages surrounding Rourkela is no less. With consultation with NIMH and Parivaar- the national federation of Parents Associations, India the Association approached Rourkela Steel Palnt to start a CBR in Jalda and Kalunga areas of Sundargarh district.(The highest number of disabled people are registered to HRB Clinic from these two areas). Rsp has been providing financial assistance to the programme ever since. A CBR programme has been running in these two areas since April 2001. 6 village women from Jalda and 6 others from Kalunga have been trained in the ways of idntification of people with different disabilities and respective interventional modalities at Home and Hope, They identify and intervene at village level and professionals and parent members of the Association visit the villages once every month to both places where a camp is conducted at the central place.
