Independent living skills training for the disabled has begun.

Charitable foundation • Moscow

Thanks to your support, self-care skills training has begun for the residents of the Shikhany Residential Home for the Disabled. The children learn to cook not just theoretically, but practically, as meals in orphanages are served in cafeterias where the children receive prepared food. Without participation in the cooking process, the children lack the necessary knowledge about cooking. Thanks to your support, young adults with disabilities now have the opportunity not only to gain independence but also to have their disability status removed, opening up new opportunities in life. After all, every small victory is a step toward a bigger dream—to live independently and with dignity.

Teaching self-care skills to pupils of a neuropsychiatric boarding school – help organize cooking lessons

These young adults ended up in the Shikhan Psychoneurological Boarding School after leaving the orphanage. In orphanages, the children's meals are organized in canteens, where they receive ready-made food. Not participating in the cooking process, the children do not have the necessary knowledge about the preparation of various dishes. Many do not know the difference between a refrigerator and a freezer. Children often have no idea what products are used to prepare dishes, and even more so how much these products cost. In addition, many children have a number of mental health problems, so some teenagers are sent to the psychoneurological boarding school. This is an institution where graduates of orphanages who have reached adulthood and for various reasons cannot live independently live on a permanent basis. Young adults can undergo a medical examination that evaluates whether a person is capable of living independently. But in order to pass it, they need to master the skills of "free" life. The children from the PNI have a large deficit of the usual, familiar skills of independent life. Therefore, we organized courses on self-service and cooking for the pupils of the "Shikhansky Psychoneurological Boarding School". Help us pay for the work of a teacher and buy food to teach young adults independent life.
