The
Association was formed on 22nd
March 2000 and officially chartered by the ministerial
order (144/2000) issued on 20th
May 2000 in
Muscat.
The Early
Intervention Centre is the only centre in Oman to provide
children from birth to the age of 6 specialized programs
that cover all developmental areas. Since its inception, the
Association’s philosophy has been to continuously develop
and upgrade its staff and build a partnership with parents
of children with disability as they are the key elements in
the success of our program.
Our Mission
The
Association serves children from birth to
6 years, who are at risk or disabled, with a comprehensive
early intervention programme that covers social, academic and therapeutic services; with the
objective of having the children enrol in regular schools or
minimize their disabilities to ensure a better quality of
life for them and their families.
The
Association also
undertakes an educational and advocacy role
to
improve societal awareness of people with
disability.
