	Summary: The project focuses on educational interventions for 3000 children with disabilities by building capacities of four to six smaller NGOs. In the first phase the project will implement and develop a model of intervention for easy replication by the sub-grantees.

The NGO hopes to create awareness and sensitize the community to the education and life skills needs of children with disabilities.
