the problem:
Our past experiences working with people with special needs inspired us to continue serving this community. We realised that adults with special needs often fly under the radar, often being overlooked and hope that we can provide some assistance with integrating them into society.
what we want to achieve:
Our overall project consists of two parts:
- Advocacy: the advocacy-centred part of our project aims to raise awareness about people with special needs - through instagram posts, videos and podcasts, and provide some insight to the lives of adults with special needs, as well as their caregivers and MINDS personnel.
- Befriending: the befriending-centred part focuses on our interaction with adults with special needs. We hope that through such interactions, they are better equipped with the skills required to achieve a level of independence and integrate into society.
