"Together for the Light" is the name of the project of the public organization "Mother's Power" "СИЛА МАТЕРІ", funded by ZOA in Ukraine with the support of the Democratic Development Association.
Within the framework of the project, families raising children with disabilities received psychological and legal assistance, speech therapy consultations were held for children with speech disorders.
"This project is important for families with children with disabilities. Moms during individual and group classes received a colossal support in problem issues. Some families figured out legal issues that they could not solve for a long time. We thank ZOA in Ukraine and the Democratic Development Association for giving us the opportunity to implement this project. It is very important for us that you support us, "the organization emphasized.
Mother's Power is a public organization in the Nosov community, founded in 2017 by parents raising children with disabilities. The impetus for the creation of the organization was the need to help and support each other. The organization has gone from a group in social networks to a cell that defends the rights of families of children with disabilities, cooperates with local authorities and international organizations.Thanks to this, a targeted program in the community, a social taxi and an inclusive playground for children became possible. In addition, the communal institution "Inclusive Resource Center of the Nosov Community" was opened in the community.
In Chernihiv region, the international organization ZOA in Ukraine, in partnership with the Association for Democratic Development NGO, is implementing a grant program, according to which 11 public organizations and initiative groups selected on a competitive basis received financial support to implement their ideas.
