Background. . .
CKSK staff conducted a preliminary survey in Belthangady area. Initially they visited the Gram Panchayat and listed out the families with the differently able children. In the next step the staff personally visited these children’s houses and interacted with their parents, guardians and siblings and gathered the basic information related to the children. These families are very poor in economical status and they cannot afford for their children’s rehabilitation/education by sending them to the distant special schools located very far from their homes by providing school fees and hostel expenses. Hence all the beneficiaries are selected after the thorough discussion and deliberation with the Self Help Group cluster Child Wellbeing Committees (CWBCs), Parents and teachers association (PTA) and with the support of the Organization staff members. This is purely democratic in nature where everybody is entitled whatever decisions are made for the betterment of the beneficiary.
