Minister for Social Welfare Poongothai has urged non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to extend their support and serve in rural areas. After visiting the stalls put up by the differently abled at 'Abilities Expo-2007', organised by Aikya, a NGO, and Lions Club International at Valluvar Kottam here, the Minister said, 'currently, 70 per cent of voluntary organisations are city based. Rural people are unaware about the special educational system for the differently abled'.

By Our Staff Reporter <div align="justify">
<div align="justify">
CHENNAI, NOV. 2. It was a memorable day for the 11,000 differently-abled persons brought together to celebrate `Sangamam', an event for special people conducted here today. <div align="justify">
True to its name, (Sangamam means union), the differently-abled from over 130 organisations in Chennai, Kancheepuram and Tiruvallur made for a mass assembly at the Nehru stadium. The event was organised by the International Association of Lions Clubs (district 324 A5) with the aim of achieving a Guinness Record. <div align="justify">
The event started with a march past by the physically and mentally challenged, who were led by a musical band made up of particularly sprightly group of children. A half-hour training session on yoga then followed. <div align="justify">
<span class="subsectionhead" style="color: red; font-size: small;">Efforts lauded </span><div align="justify">
<div align="justify">
The Kanchi Acharya, Jayendra Saraswati, who was at hand, said those with physical and mental deficiencies had additional abilities to compensate for their disability. Praying for their welfare, he hailed the efforts of the Lions Clubs in organising the event. He called for more such ventures to support the differently-abled and to create awareness about their skills. <div align="justify">
E. Shanmuga Sundaram, Joint Director, Office of the State Commissioner of the Disabled, said voluntary bodies needed to join hands with the Government to ensure jobs for the physically challenged. The Prince of Arcot, Mohammed Abdul Ali, was also present. <div align="justify">
Inaugurated by Chigurupathi Varaprasad, the international director of Lions Clubs multiple district 324, the event had prayers from all faiths for the welfare of the differently abled. <div align="justify">
About 7,000 children participated in a painting contest that was part of the celebrations. W.I. Davaram, the Vice President of Sports Development Authority, later distributed notebooks and other aids to the children. Parvathy Viswanath, zone 3 chairperson of Lions Clubs, said the event showcased the abilities of the disabled, who only needed an opportunity to prove themselves. <div align="justify">

<br />
My mom has been associated with special needs children for over 12 years now. Having spent quality time with them, i knew it would be difficult to handle them all by myself. As i walked from Ramarishna mission towards AIKYA it unnerved me. I wondered "how should i react?", "how should i behave?", how do i interact with them?", "How do i reach out to them?". With all these questions swirling in my head i pushed open the creaky old black gate of the school and entered. Lost in my doubts i was caught by surprise when a bunch of 7 kids greeted me "hello Akka!". I stood there for a moment unable to comprehend my next move so i simply smiled and waved out to them ( In my head i silently did a face palm).<br />
<br />
Before I start giving you details about the daily routine of this school i'll take this opportunity to tell you a little about AIKYA and the students there. AIKYA is a non profit organisation managed by Ms Parvathy Viswanath which promotes the interest and welfare of children with autism, ADHD, down syndrome and specific learning disability. Yes, there's a lot of fight involved in training these kids as they display short attention span, impaired social interaction, hyperactive and stereotype behaviour but No, it doesn't pain us or we don't sympathise with them because they aren't to be pitied upon. Believe me when i say this that what one does as a volunteer or a teacher is nothing compared to the impact these kids have on your life. In fact it gives us great joy to see that whatever hardwork we put in has made a small difference. "The outcome is always greater than the Expectation."<br />
<br />
As a volunteer i work there for 2 hours and help teach them math and english. We also have life skill sessions like money counting, trip to grocery stores , sports , dance , story telling, cutting vegetables, making tea , greeting cards and so on. Just two weeks old i have mainly observed them and have realised that they are more than willing to learn. They have no inhibitions and are as naughty as normal kids ( even more at times). For instance, they promise to do their homework but don't and when asked they give an apologetic innocent smile that melts your heart right out. They are very meticulous and keep a careful tab on their pencils, erasers, lunch boxes etc. They are particular and return the chairs ,tables, ball, notebooks to their rightful place. They take permission to use the washroom or drink water even though that's just their way to escape the grunt work. Children with autism have trouble communicating. They have trouble understanding what other people think and feel. This makes it very hard for them to express themselves either with words or through gestures, facial expressions, and touch. One of the major symptoms of autism is repeated hand movements like hand flapping and rocking , unusual attachments to people , attachment to objects and resistance to change in their routine but they also have unusually developed skills in other areas such as drawing, creating music, solving math problems, or memorizing facts ( like countries, capitals, states, citites, GK etc). While being accomodating, one has to be strict and firm so that it helps them learn. <br />
<br />
Its challenging but great fun. They'll make you smile even on your worst days. <br />
<br />
They are angels!<br />

<br />
Similar to hyperkinetic disorder, neurodevelopmental type in which there are significant problems of attention and/or hyperactivity and acting impulsively that are not appropriate for a person's age. These symptoms must begin by age six to twelve and be present for more than six months for a diagnosis to be made. In school-aged individuals the lack of focus may result in poor school performance.<br />
<br />Despite being the most commonly studied and diagnosed disorder in children and adolescents, the cause in the majority of cases is unknown. It affects about 6 to 7 percent of children. Rates are similar between countries and depend mostly on how it is diagnosed. ADHD is approximately three times more frequent in boys than in girls. About 30 to 50 percent of people diagnosed in childhood continue to have symptoms into adulthood and between 2 and 5 percent of adults have the condition.<br />The condition can be difficult to tell. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD, similar to hyperkinetic disorder, neuron-developmental type in which there are significant l apart from other disorders as well as that of high normal activity. ADHD management usually involves some combination of counseling, lifestyle changes, and medications. Medications are only recommended as a first-line treatment in children who have severe symptoms and may be considered for those with moderate symptoms who either refuse or fail to improve with counseling. Long-term effects of medications are not clear and they are not recommended in preschool aged children. Adolescents and adults tend to develop coping skills, which make up for some or all of their impairments.<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lion Parvathy Viswanath and founder-director of AIKYA had the opportunity to attend a seminar by Tapas Das (Thanks to Lions
Clubs in Chennai). Tapas spoke only for an hour, without a break, but
the talk was interesting and you cannot afford to bat an eyelid as you
may miss a good thought. Tapas gave a lot of messages about parenting and family.<br />

He told that if the husband returns from office to home with tension, then the tension passes on to wife, and then to the child. So, it becomes a chain reaction. So, the husband must return with a smiling spirit to home.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Connect before you Correct" was a nice message by Tapas. He gave an
analogy of how we cannot apply soap directly to our body, but must first
apply water and then soap. Here water is "connect" and soap is
"correct." Similarly, we need to establish a rapport with a person
before we can correct them. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tapas also talked about the difference between "Nature" and "Design". If
we just went by nature, people will label us as mad. Instead, we need
to design our life - just like how you design your curriculum vitae for a
better job or higher salary. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<br />
When we are in a good mood our mind switch is "ON." So, we behave
positively and act wisely. But when we are in a bad mood, our switch is
"OFF." So, we behave negatively and act otherwise. It is good to keep
our mental switch ON.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tapas asked us not to take our relationships for granted and to design
our relationships. He asks us also to stay away from people who behave
like a virus. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
