What is Independent Living Skill Training Program?

The Independent Living Skill Training Program aims to encourage people with disabilities to be independent and to help them live more positively.

This manual is made to be used by a group of people with disabilities in institution, workshop, communities who want to lead an independent life on condition that a facilitator of the program, whom we call “Peer Counselor”, is a peer with a disability.
