Community Based Rehabilitation


Girl_having_speech_therapy.jpgCommunity-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) refers to the strategy of meeting the needs of people with disabilities within their communities.

This is opposed to the centre-based strategy where people with disabilities must travel to a specialised institution to receive rehabilitation services. Institutions are often expensive to set up and run and can only cater for a small percentage of people who can access the service.

The CBR concept encourages projects and programs that involves people with disabilities, their families and communities within the communities themselves.
