Resource and Training center: 

They envision the resource center to be something that is constantly  reaching out to different sections of the society, be it parents, people  with disabilities, doctors, pediatricians, health groups or the community at  large, reaching out with books, pamphlets, and training sessions.  This would also attempt to reach out to the rural areas mainly by linking  with organizations already working in the area of disability. 
This center would attempt to become self sufficient by producing and  distributing publications and audio-visual material that could be sold. 

Phase 1 - 2 years: 

*       Collection of material from various parts of the country that is  directly related to the rehabilitation of the people and kids with  disabilities. 
*       Material would be collected on all major disabilities including  mental illness 
*       advertising the center and working with the media. 
*       Organizing talks and information sharing weeks in Delhi and outside. 
*       Building links with NGOs and organizations across the country 
*       Will also work as a referral center for parents and families of  people with disabilities. 

Phase 2: 

*       Preparation of info packages for specific groups as well as training  modules that could be used by any NGO, government agency and such 
*       Start producing material in he form of booklets, manuals, pamphlets  that could be sold. 

They gave the budget for this center and the total of non-recurring and  recurring expenditure for the three years is 

Year 1          6,60,400 
Year 2          5,36,400 
Year 3          5,16,000 

with a grand total of 17,12,800 for all the three years.
