APD has customized short-term and mid-term courses to support families and communities to understand the world of a child or person with speech and hearing impairment and cerebral palsy. This is the first step towards bonding and strengthening relationships.

A significant component training and enabling parents and communities is the Child to Child Programme. This is in accordance with one of APD’s founding principle to prepare children with disabilities to walk shoulder to shoulder with other children in due course of time. On one hand, it helps children to understand the needs of children with disabilities while on the other, daily interaction with them helps in the positive shaping of attitudes at an early age.

Communities include caregivers, members of Self-help groups and those who are part of corporates, networks and federations.
