We Care for Adults with Disabilities!
Help us help!
Since 1994, our association has been a unique Hungarian institution in Cluj-Napoca, dedicated to supporting adults with disabilities.
Our services are crucial for the families we serve, providing developmental activities that create a community of peers. This sense of belonging is essential for the well-being of young people with disabilities.
Many of our beneficiaries come from single-parent families, have retired parents with low incomes, or have lost their parents and now live in homes. Your support can make a significant difference in their lives.
Alternative opportunity for individuals to engage in community life in a meaningful way.
The association supports 12 individuals with disabilities, aged between 21 and 57 years. These individuals have a various range of health conditions, including multiple disabilities like visual impairments, epilepsy, schizophrenia, autism, and other psychological disorders, classified as either serious or moderate. Here, they find friendship, acceptance, and meaningful engagement with like-minded peers. Development activities are facilitated by two dedicated professionals, working alongside volunteers.
Social Skills Development
Our social skills development program is designed to help beneficiaries gain a deeper understanding of social dynamics and enhance their ability to collaborate with others. Through a variety of group activities, games, and interactive exercises, we foster respectful communication and effective conflict resolution skills. Our goal is to empower beneficiaries to feel more confident in social situations and to cultivate a strong sense of community.
Development of Creativity
To foster creativity, we offer a range of arts and crafts activities, including painting, drawing, pottery making, and other creative projects. Our goal is to provide beneficiaries with the freedom to express themselves and develop their unique ideas. Additionally, we emphasize creative problem-solving, which promotes independence and critical thinking.
Communication Skills Development
To enhance communication skills, we organize exercises and role plays that encourage active listening, clear expression, and empathy. Beneficiaries learn to articulate their thoughts clearly while respecting others’ opinions and feelings. By improving these interactions, we help everyone connect with the outside world more easily and successfully.
Development of Autonomy
Our autonomy development program assists beneficiaries in navigating everyday life situations, enabling them to make independent decisions and perform basic household and personal tasks. These sessions are designed to boost self-confidence while providing support to overcome challenges. The central goal is to strengthen independent work and living skills.
Culture and Social Events
Our culture and social events include a variety of activities, lectures, excursions, and community gatherings that help beneficiaries connect with others and enrich their cultural experiences. These events are designed to make everyone feel valued and encourage active participation in community life. Through these activities, beneficiaries can make new friends and expand their knowledge of art, history, and society.
What They Said about us
We actively engage with churches, schools, and social institutions to raise awareness and sensitivity towards people with disabilities. Through these interactions, we educate healthy children and adults, fostering a more inclusive mindset. At the same time, our clients have the chance to become part of the broader community, gain valuable life experiences, and integrate more fully into society.
