PROJECT PROFILE PLIGHT OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES: The status and situation of Disabled Persons in Kurnool District of Andhra Pradesh, India is pitiable. The people with disabilities in our area are poor and at risk of malnutrition, poor conditions of environmental sanitation. People with disabilities who are members of poor families are therefore marginalized. There are negative attitudes on the part of non-disabled persons in the family and the community, lack of services, lack of artificial limbs & appliances are serious constraints. It is dire need to concentrate efforts to improve the quality of life of the disabled by distribution of artificial limbs and appliances. There are about 10000 persons with disabilities in our area of working. Persons with disabilities are a heterogeneous group composed of those born with a disability, those who acquire a disability and those who become disabled as a result of accidents. They include children and young people, adults and elderly persons. Their disabilities are extensive, moderate and single disability and multiple disabilities. The disability prevalence rates among different age groups have indicated both positive and negative aspects. Mechanization, transport development, haphazard industrialization growth and environmental degradation have made workers exposed to accidents and other disabilities. This proposed project is needed for the targeted communities as they are deprived and poorest of the poor. The targeted communities are socially backward and economically deprived and educationally underprivileged.

These poor and needy people of disabled are deprived in their socio-economic and community life. They need some kind of external support and assistance to make their life self-supportive. Every year GWOA NGO receives requests in hundreds especially after the free camp for the disabled and general public. The NGO were 80 covered yet there are several hundreds of applications for help are pending due to limited funds. The following are the reasons that portray the need of this proposed project: Severely disabled children and youth of all ages are highly dependent on their parents to meet their basic care and treatment needs. In addition, older children are likely to have social, communication and behavioural problems. Many of them were dependent on at least one item of medical equipment. On average, household incomes were lower among these families compared with families with non-disabled. Please scroll down to read more... OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT: 1.
