First Step Together Association (FISTA)
Overview
FISTA First Step Together Association for special education is a Non-Governmental Organization working with children, adolescents and adults who have cognitive impairments, communication disorders, psychomotor difficulties, learning disabilities, attention deficit disorders, hyperactivity, behavioral and psycho-social problems.
The exclusion of persons with disabilities from the education and healthcare systems places higher protection risks on children and youth; including child labor, early marriage and other forms of violence and ill-treatment.
FISTA is addressing this problem through the implementation of a package of programs that tackles four main pillars:
- More inclusive rehabilitation and educational services for the children with moderate and severe disabilities.
- Parent/caregiver engagement and capacity building programs on the inclusion, integration and protection of persons with disabilities.
- An inclusion of children with disabilities in academic and social activities
- Awareness-raising programs in order to improve attitudes and behaviors towards the inclusion of children with disabilities among communities.
