WELCOME CONNECTS AUTISM TANZANIA
Connects Autism Tanzania is non-profitable organization registered in 2015 aiming to improve the quality life of children, youths and young adults with autism and other Challenges.
CAT believe that people with disabilities should enjoy the same equal rights as everybody else. We are guided by the principle that all people with disabilities should be able to participate in life on an equitable basis regardless of their abilities.
The mission of CA Tanzania is to support people living with autism and co-occurring conditions through capacity building, advocacy, community awareness and developing opportunities for success.
Connect
Build a network across Tanzania to connect people with possible services providers and advocates. Develop and share resources amongst our network and seek volunteer support.
Unite
Build partnerships with the government to influence policies and improve services for people with disabilities in Tanzania. Encourage the creation of local groups to support each other.
Educate
Conduct seminars to reduce stigma and introduce strategies that will enable society and the educational system to assist people with autism and co-occurring condition.
Participate: Plan a fundraiser or become a sponsor.
Whether in Tanzania or in a developed country, humanitarians strive to ensure that all people have equal rights to live in dignity and with purpose. Perhaps you can plan a challenge, social event, or other occasions to help CA Tanzania build its services for the intellectually disabled who struggle the most without any resources or support systems.
We encourage and seek to find ways that families from the community can work with professionals to identify the disability of their child and create a plan to better support their child.
Seeking Opportunity for People with Disabilities
