About Sandhiniketan Vocational Training centre : This centre, established in 1970s has more than 100 disabled trainees passing out every year through following trades.
a. Tailoring,
b. Electrical assembly
c. Electronics
d. Handicrafts Unit & Art Section
e. Handloom Section & Power loom Section,
f. Leather Craft,
g. Driving School,
h. Computer training centre Etc.
Need: As there is no government post for a placement officer who can coordinate the job placements of these trainees, many trainees remain jobless in future.Currently existing trainers try their level best to get government assistance for their students. However their capacity, capability and resources are limited so they can help very few students who are aspiring. Remaining students do not find a job or loans to start business. Apart from this social security schemes are difficult to obtain due to a lot of travel involved, corruption and parental neglect. Not every disabled student can manage all these hectic issues. Hence even after such intensive training for one year students remain unemployed purely because of lack of guidance afterwards. Adolescent problems and Marriage are also important problems in this age group. Due to their limitation on societal interactions, they land up in problems related to adolescence for which they do not get any support. A counseling facility will immensely help them sort of these issues. Due to physical limitations, these students often find it difficult to get a match for marriage so often they compromise on many factors. We have seen many couples, who because of inadequate medical and psychological guidance have produced disabled offsprings.
