Care and Education for Students with Special Needs
Balad Al Khair Delegation Inspects Special Needs Project with Awqaf
"Balad Al Khair" Delegation Inspects "Care and Education for Students with Special Needs" Project in Collaboration with the General Secretariat of Awqaf
As part of its continuous field monitoring of its unique
humanitarian projects, a delegation from the Balad Al Khair Society, led by
Director-General Othman Al-Thuwaini, conducted a field visit to the Behavior
Modification Center. The purpose of the visit was to observe the progress of
the "Care and Education for Students with Special Needs" project,
which the society is implementing with generous support from the General
Secretariat of Awqaf.
In its first phase, the project targets 13 students with
special needs who suffer from language delays. Each student receives 12 speech
therapy sessions monthly, delivered under the supervision of qualified
specialists from the center. These sessions are part of a comprehensive
rehabilitation plan aimed at developing speech and communication skills and
enhancing opportunities for academic and social integration for the children.
During the visit, the delegation reviewed the mechanisms for
implementing the therapy sessions and listened to a detailed presentation from
the center's technical team on the assessment stages and the progress made
during the first three months of the project's implementation. Reports showed
significant improvement in students' performance in terms of speech, sentence
formation, and behavioral responses.
Al-Thuwaini lauded the project's importance and its tangible
results, emphasizing that this humanitarian model reflects the society's
commitment to empowering the most vulnerable groups. He also praised the
support from the General Secretariat of Awqaf, which played the largest role in
launching this unique program, and the cooperation of the Behavior Modification
Center in implementing it according to the highest specialized standards.
This visit is part of the society's efforts to monitor the quality of implementation and measure the educational and rehabilitative impact, ensuring that the project achieves its desired outcomes. This aligns with its vision of empowering individuals with special needs and achieving social justice and equal opportunities for all segments of society.
