For true inclusion and belonging, training for people with intellectual disabilities (IDs) cannot be just limited to the urban middle class as we see in Jalandhar and indeed all districts in Punjab.

Apaar believes in the accessibility of training and education for everyone irrespective of their geographic location. Therefore, we started our first rural center in Bhojewal in Jalandhar district on August 12, 2022. This center will cater to people with IDs who live in Bhojowal and neighboring five villages.
