The Training Centre 

INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRAINING CENTRE

 Assisted Living Centre - Our Residence

ARUNIMA's Assisted Living Centre which is a residential program is the first of its kind for persons with disability in India. We use the term Assisted Living Center because the setup is not meant to be a care giving “home” but a place for rehabilitation, lifelong care and continuous growth.

The residents are assessed at the onset and individualised educational programs (IEPs) designed for them based on this thorough evaluation. These programs are set up to help the residents learn to live fulfilling lives, as independently as possible. IEPs are implemented by staff that are  trained specifically for the purpose. ​

 WHAT WE DO TOGETHER

 Social Skills Training

"Many children and adults on the autism spectrum need help in learning how to act in different types of social situations. They often have the desire to interact with others, but may not know how to engage friends or may be overwhelmed by the idea of new experiences."

Daily Living Skills

Daily Living skills are also known as Self Help Skills: These are some of the most important lessons and skills individuals learn. 
Here at ARUNIMA, we strive to reach independence in everything that we do. We focus on developing life skills like bathing, toileting , brushing etc. These skills are broken down into simple steps, and students are taught systematically to achieve each step till they master the whole activity. Visuals in every place possible are an important aspect of learning.

Here at ARUNIMA, we realise the importance of leaning Social Skills in real life situations. We believe in taking our Friends out into the amazing community of Dheradun to facilitate social development. 

Some of our favourite places include restaurants, shopping malls and shopping for essentials
While there is a focus on skills taught specifically in the classroom, the learnt skills are quickly generalised to real life situations.

Behaviour Management 

"Behaviour does not occur in isolation. Behavior is communication. Identifying the ABC's : Antecedents, Behaviour, Consequences of behaviour and then working on them ensures a high degree of success."
Here at ARUNIMA, we believe it is important that our Friends develop their own identity and personality. In everything that we do, there is a lot of importance given shaping and encouraging good behaviour.

COVID Sanitisation Process
