 Our Mission

 

Raise the Awareness of the Jordanian Society on the Rights of People with Disabilities and the obligation to respect their rights through emphasizing dialogue and Voluntary work among different Societal Centers and representatives. Offer Comprehensive medical and rehabilitation services to People with Disabilities throughout the voluntary committees, highlighting the importance of their participation in the development process.

   

We base our mission on three principles:

 
   

The  Humanitarian Principle

The Individual with Special Needs is a human being that has rights starting with the right to live in dignity regardless of his health and financial situation. Jesus said: “Treat people the way you want them to treat you.” We believe that, and we also believe that there are treasures in the heart of every human being that should be invested for the benefit of the individuals with special needs.

   
   

 The National Principle

People with Disabilities are our partners in citizenship. By supporting them we help them reach out to their rightful places in their family, society and the whole country.

   

Spiritual Principle

The Jordanian Society, including Christians and Muslims, is a religious society. Both religions share the same basis in spite of their differences which is that Christians and Muslims believe in the same God, and that God is the source of human dignity. Based on this spiritual ground, the Jordanian society, Christians and Muslims, stand together to serve the individuals with special needs and build the national unity with the respect of the religious freedom.

 

 Our Vision
 

People with Disabilities become partners in the development Process and have a role in the everyday life of the Jordanian Society while enjoying all their rights as provided by Law.


People with Disabilities are provided with the fullest extent of all Rehabilitation Services including Physical and Psychological Rehabilitation, in addition to educational, medical and training programs. Furthermore, to ensure that the Parents and Families of People with Disabilities reach the highest level of acceptance that can be in order to support and sustain them, so that all People with Disabilities are offered a fair chance to grow and prosper.
