~story by Belinda Meggitt~
Patients at CRP go through a rigorous rehabilitation process to assist their reintegration into mainstream society. See more photos here.
Centre for the Rehabilitation of the Paralysed (CRP), based at Savar, has worked extensively throughout Bangladesh since the 70s to improve the care of People with Disabilities (PWD), especially the paralysed. Their dynamic approach to care and advocacy is internationally supported. Not only do they offer acute care, but they provide an integrated approach to mainstream social reintegration that includes skills training, allied health care and family counselling.
Over the past two years CRP has faced internal dissonance. Yet, despite management restructuring and funding issues they have forged ahead for the benefit of PWD and their families. This Friday they are holding a fundraising event.
