From May 25 to May 26, a charity forum “Time of Good Deeds” was held in Alma-Ata. The main topic was communication, education and socialization of adolescents and young people with mental disorders.
The key participants of the event were parents of children with disabilities and teachers. Russian and Kazakh experts in the field of inclusive education shared their experience of psychological and pedagogical work and taught the practices of developing independence and social skills in adolescents and young people.
“If we talk about children who need help, then an important role in their lives is played by parents, family, the environment in which the child grows and develops. Therefore, I would like to see more such events”, said Aliya Ospanova, Chairman of the Board of the “Center for Support of Civil Initiatives”.
The continuation of the forum will be the “Mission Dobro” program. In June, Russian volunteers will conduct classes on the development of children with mental disabilities.
In 2022, thanks to the methods of the specialists of the “Mission Dobro” in Taraz, parents and teachers made tangible progress in the development of special children in a short time.
The organizers of the forum “Time of Good Deeds” were the Russian House in Astana, “Union of Parents of Special Children”, the Center for Social Adaptation for Children with Mental Disabilities in Taraz.
