Jan Vikas Samiti (JVS) is a non-governmental organisation working at national level since 1998. JVS works for holistic development of the marginalized and underprivileged sections of the society, particularly of women, children, scheduled caste, scheduled tribe and persons with disabilities. Under the supervision of a dedicated team, JVS is running different programmes in the fields of health, education and livelihood. Social inclusion is a core element of our programme which runs through all the fields of our intervention. At present, JVS has a team of professionals specialised in rehabilitation, education and community development. JVS has a strong link with different governmental organisations at state and national level in the field of disability and development. Parallely , JVS is operating as SPO of Liliane Foundation for India North. JVS is also responsible for SPO Nepal as a cluster country. Liliane Fonds projects are implemented in North and North East region of India with support of JVS as Strategic Partner Organizations (SPOs). As SPO, JVS provides its services in the following states : Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and North East. At present, we have given special focus on the states of North East region which consists of eight states with 44 million people living in it. North East region is an area of enormous traditional, cultural and religious diversity. Geographically, the region is dominated by forests, rivers, lakes and mountains. Large parts of the region have a very low population density except in urban areas. This region has been affected by numerous conflicts for decades, which continues to burn up occasionally. Due to all these reasons, the development of infrastructure, institutions, communication and services is lagging behind the rest of the country. But, with the help of new governments in the states, things are moving in right direction. There are significant challenges which affect the disability & rehabilitation services in this region. JVS reaches out to Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Nagaland and Tripura among the 8 North East states.

In 2014 three international agencies – CBM, LFTW and LF-JVS – brought together their partners in the North East in order to explore options for a collaborative, rights-based approach to inclusive education. This approach, which will serve to further strengthen the SSA system in the NE, has been developed through several workshops and in-depth consultations with each partner. The focus is on strengthening and supporting existing NGO/GO facilities, rather than starting new initiatives. This will lead to a greater measure of sustainability. The idea is to improve the quality of inclusive education by developing ‘model’ schools in partnership with government primary schools that the government will then want to replicate elsewhere. The project partners will be equipped to become capacity development partners for these schools, providing technical support and learning/training resources for mainstream schools to learn skills in inclusive education. Advocacy and awareness initiatives at grassroots level will help ensure children with disabilities who are not yet enrolled are enrolled and create demand for inclusive education. A significant benefit of collaboration of this scale is that advocacy and awareness at state and regional levels is also possible and will form another important component of this project.

: The Proposed project aims to capacitate CBR facilitators on rehabilitation diagnosis, making custom made treatment/rehabilitation plans and providing appropriate therapies to the children and youth with disabilities who are most in need in the rural parts of North and Northeast India. It is a joint dream of Jan Vikas Samiti- Liliane Fonds and Groot Klimmendaal. The proposed project will be using simple technology to increase the reach of professionals input to the poor and interior areas of said North and Northeast region which is initially covered by the POs of JVS and later will be giving entrance to other organizations/ professionals as well.
