|
|
The Fund assists in development of services for persons with disabilities within the community and in institutions, to help them realize their potential in the fields of education, employment and leisure time activities.
The areas of the Fund’s activities reflect the many changes and new trends in the attitude towards people with disabilities: promoting their rights; changes in professional perceptions of their integration into the community, society, family and work; and the development of unique services for those who cannot integrate into the community.

| Fields of Assistance | |
In acknowledgement of the right of persons with disabilities to equal opportunities, the Fund assists in the development of services for integrating such persons in the community, in order to allow every person to realize his/her potential to the fullest. The assistance is provided in rehabilitation, employment, community and institutional living, early childhood services, and leisure time activities.
In 2006 assistance was provided in the field of accessibility only in the framework of higher education, and formal and informal education. During 2007 the Fund will continue to provide assistance for accessibility programs in the areas of higher education, and informal education (community centers, libraries, etc.). |
