About
The Parents Voice Association (PVA) was founded in 1984 by a group of 10 like-minded parents of individuals with disabilities. Keeping in mind the well-being of their children with disabilities and the society at large, it was decided that an institution or NGO had to be established which would directly cater to the concerns of parents registered with the PVA.

What is UJALA
UJALA – School for Children with Special Abilities and Vocational Training Centre was established in 1986 by the Parents Voice Association, aimed at supporting and nurturing differently-abled children in a society that was unaware and unprepared to care for such individuals. UJALA currently caters to individuals with Down syndrome, Autism and other intellectual and developmental disabilities.
The school is one of the oldest non-profit organizations within Karachi, providing holistic habilitative services for children with special needs, ranging from; Education, Early Childhood Intervention, Vocational Training, Behavior Therapy, Healthcare and a Job Placement Program.

Andehere me Karo UJALA
UJALA currently supports over 70 students with special abilities such as Autism, Down Syndrome and other Intellectual Disabilities in a facility spanning 1000 ft2. However, with limited resource allocation toward the social development sector and even fewer institutes catering to the holistic needs of individuals with special needs, the demand for UJALA’s services is high, whilst the capacity to continue to provide high-quality and subsidized services becomes limited by the day.
Social Internship Program
UJALA’s core focus through the years has not only been to cater to individuals with special needs, but to also advocate for their disabilities, generating empathy and understanding within the masses. The Social Internship program at UJALA helps foster creative expression, entrepreneurship, leadership and professional and personal development within young individuals. The internship program has been divided into two categories; basic program and an advanced program. Students having completed at least 8 years from an HEC recognized school can sign up for our Basic Internship program, whereby they’ll be required to complete at least 30 hours of interning at UJALA. The Advanced Internship program is meant for returning interns who have fulfilled the minimum requirement of hours completed at UJALA, during their Basic internee tenure.
