HASANABDAL:
A non-governmental organization named Alif Welfare Society has advocated for government support as well as group initiatives in an attempt to help unique children become good members of society.
Riffat Yasmeen Anwar, the founder of Alif Welfare Society and principal of Young Muslim Inclusive Education, believes that everyone has a responsibility to contribute to the success and ease of unique children’s life. She emphasized the critical necessity for legislation in the field of education to create a special education board and curriculum.
“These kids are more gifted than others, thanks to Allah. Speaking to the media on the eve of a free one-day medical camp and rehab, Anwar stated that it is important to provide them extra care and boost their confidence.
For a considerable amount of time, the Alif Welfare Society has been providing special youngsters in the Hasan Abdal neighborhood with training and education. In addition to offering education, the institution offers specialized medical care from specialists and doctors. Numerous unique kids have received effective care and are leading regular lives.
A one-day medical camp was planned with the intention of raising awareness among the locals and giving special needs children free medical examinations. Specialists who evaluated the youngsters and spoke with their parents about their concerns included neurosurgeon Dr. Rabia Zubair, Dr. Ahsan Raza, Dr. Faisal Sultan, Dr. Saleem Jadoon, Dr. Tahir Mahmood, and Dr. Muhammad Gul Anwar.
The media was informed by Moiza Agha, the coordinator of the program, that hundreds of exceptional children were present at the free medical camp, demonstrating the need for ample medical care and facilities. It’s a challenging effort, she noted, for unique youngsters to travel to Rawalpindi in order to obtain a certificate. The local general hospital should have a designated counter set up by the government where special needs kids can pick up their certificates.
“There are hardly any facilities in Pakistan for children with special needs. Raising awareness and eradicating hopelessness from society are vital. Agha stated, “We should pay attention to these flowers of Allah and make them an important part of society instead of leaving them on the streets.”
After receiving an education, many exceptional students are contributing to the growth of this nation. The parents who came to the free medical camp expressed gratitude to Alif Welfare Society and were happy with the amenities offered.
