Introduction

“NIDAAN” is an unaided non-government organization, dedicated to the cause of Mental Health of Individuals. NIDAAN works in one of the most neglected areas of health i.e. Mental Health. Mental Health is not a priority as a health as a health issue in any part of the world, more so in developing nations like India.  NIDAAN’s thrust is multifold – one, to establish Mental Health within the mainstream health paradigm of India and second, to ‘speak for’ a large population of people with mental illness and their right to a professional and inclusive system of care and treatment, third is to train the various stakeholders of the Society, who are the caregivers, parents, Guardians, Teachers, students, and Mental Health professionals.

 NIDAAN INSTITUTE OF REHABILITATION AND TRAINING (NIRT) provides remedial intervention to children with special needs, especially those with Learning Disabilities, ADD/ADHD,  Autism, Intellectual Disabilities, Hearing Impairment, Speech and language, Impairments and developmental delays.  NIRT also provides programs for the enhancement of study skills and creative expression and training through the National Institute of Open School (NIOS) Curriculum.

NIRT provides all facilities under one roof to ID/LD/ADHD/ASD/Multiple Disabilities/ Mental Illness and CP children like Testing, Diagnosis, therapies like Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, Physio -Therapy, Multy Sensory Clinic, Activities for daily living, Life skills, Academics, Art & Craft, Music & Dance, Indoor & Outdoor Games, Theatre for Children, Yoga & Meditation for all, Prevocational Training, Vocational Training, Computer literacy Program and preparing for Open School Examination(NIOS).

NIRT also involves the Interns and Volunteers to experience the In-House and Online Internships through Experiential learning. Throughout the year students from all the Universities and Schools keep coming and doing their internship with NIRT.

NIRT has a team of around 25 dedicated members, working for the welfare of all these children. We organize screening camps in the communities ( Durga Nagar, Ishwar Nagar, Baba, Nagar, Kolar Road, etc. )along with door-to-door surveys to identify CWSN and mobilize them to the center through our vehicles. For these children, the services are provided Free.

NIRT also believes in the welfare and rehabilitation of Children and Adults with special needs. They are born different from normal but their DIVINE POTENTIAL and STRENGTH are to be channelized and, to transform them into respected individuals of mainstream society. Team NIDAAN is committed to the same.
