In an effort to improve the quality of life and independence of children with disabilities, special needs and learning disabilities, Hemas Holdings PLC together with the Kelaniya Faculty of Medicine, announced the launch of their latest social responsibility initiative, ‘AYATI’ - a center of excellence for children with disabilities. The name AYATI is derived from the Sanskrit language and means ‘hope’.
The AYATI center will provide opportunities and hope for children with disabilities to achieve their maximum potential and be fully integrated into our society. This initiative will address a burning national issue prevailing in the country, by establishing a national center of excellence to provide these children with multidisciplinary care.
The center will be set up at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Kelaniya at Ragama, as it is the only medical faculty in the entire Asian region that has a Department of Disability Studies, which offers a multidisciplinary team for the care of children with disabilities. It is also easily accessible by public transport as both the railway and bus stations are in close proximity to the Faculty premises.
