Charitable Foundation «Gulfstream»: «Thanks to you, Sofia began to smile more often»
CrimeaPRESS reports:
Please give Sophia the opportunity to regularly engage with specialists, otherwise a rollback may occur and the newly acquired skills may be forgotten.
Sofia’s story cannot leave anyone indifferent. The girl is 18 years old, almost all her life her only friend and interlocutor is her mother. The fact is that Sophia has mental retardation, epilepsy and a brain cyst. The girl has big problems with communication. It was possible to overcome this problem only when the mother brought her daughter to the Teenage Club in the city of Kaluga, a project of the Gulfstream Charitable Foundation “Inclusion in Action. Available to everyone.» This project promotes the socialization and integration of families with adolescents with mental disabilities into society. Thanks to the efforts of the psychologists of the project and classes in the club, Sofia learned to communicate with her peers, share her creativity and achieve success in everyday skills. She found friends who are ready to support her and help in difficult moments. To come to this result, my mother had to devote all her time and energy to her daughter. The girl’s father left the family almost as soon as he learned about the diagnosis. Mom had to raise the child alone— tell the story of the family in the Gulfstream Charitable Foundation.
In one academic year, the girl already has results to be proud of: she has mastered the path from home to the club and now she can come to study on her own. Her speech changed, epithets appeared. Sophia took control of her own schedule. She knows when she has a lesson and when she needs to go to bed early.
We ask you to help Sophia continue to develop and overcome obstacles on the way to an independent life, — note in the Gulfstream Charitable Foundation.
