The action

Orphan adult persons with disabilities (OAPD) in need often face unique psychosocial challenges, including isolation, low self-esteem, and difficulties with social interactions. Hence, this project aims to empower the health and well-being of 49 (OAPD) by integrating them into Occupational Laboratories of Association “Project Hope” focusing on promotion of mental health, social inclusion, and personal empowerment.A structured and supportive environment will be established, equipped to facilitate activities such as pyrography, gardening, art-craft, and handcrafts that are designed to be both creative and therapeutic, tailored to various interests and abilities, providing beneficiaries with opportunities to develop new skills, express themselves, improve cognitive and motor skills and to be empowered.
To further support the beneficiaries, the project will provide individualized assistance through trained staff and volunteers, ensuring that each participant can fully engage in the activities, receiving the guidance and tools needed to succeed.In recognition of their efforts, the beneficiaries with working abilities will be included in a comprehensive compensation and benefits program to receive bonuses as a motivation to not only reward but also to encourage continued participation, contributing to a positive and empowering experience
The project will also raise awareness and advocacy about the importance of inclusion and mental health through community events during Mental Health Awareness Month in May.
We will greatly appreciate any contribution that would help to enable this initiative for occupational engagement of people with disabilities, hoping be sustainable in future projects for a safe investment in the field of socio-health care. Ultimately, this project seeks to create a lasting positive impact on the lives of OAPD, enhancing their quality of life and integrating them into the broader community.
