Partnership with Organisations

AMBA partners with organisations who are in the space of rehabilitation, early intervention, and education of persons with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities.

The Problem Statement

The problem statement with these organisations is their lack of expertise/focus in providing employment opportunities for their beneficiaries. Additionally, increased behavior challenges during puberty force the organisation to send them home. The organisations feel their efforts over the years are in vain as:

• The individual, even though they have gone through years of rehabilitation, regresses back to where they started in a short period of three months.
• They are considered a huge burden on the family, and the stigma attached to them further adds to the disruption within the family. This also increases the drain of resources as one parent now has to stay home to manage the individual.

AMBA's Standard Model

AMBA over the years has built a standard model of generating an asset within the Special Institution, in collaboration and partnership, to enable an AMBA Certified Partner Centre (ACPCS) which takes them in continuity into Livelihoods.

1. Training and Development

AMBA’s training develops and improves behavior challenges and individuals’ holistic daily living capability.

2. Phases of Learning

Initiates different phases of learning, peer-driven, to enable functional usage of the computer.

3. Simulated Circumstances

They thereafter take them into simulated circumstances to maximize efficiency in doing varied backend work, across genres of clientele.

4. Utilizing Existing Collaterals

AMBA uses existing collaterals available with the partner like space, furniture, administration, trainers, and adult beneficiaries to start the process of generating ACPCs. Using existing collaterals keeps operational and overhead costs to a minimum. They then partner with the CSR of organisations to bring in the assets required to fully generate a functional ACPC.

5. Monitoring and Excellence

AMBA uses ICT to monitor excellence within the ACPCs.

6. Business Development

AMBA’s role exceeds the period of training into developing business appropriate to the training.

7. Economic Impact

On starting work, the ACPC now makes an economic impact for the individuals and, over time, financial sustainability for running the ACPCs.

Engagement and Sustainability

AMBA and the CSR’s engagement with these partner organisations is limited to adults seeking employment opportunities and registered within the ACPC.

AMBA invests 2-3 years in taking ACPC to run activity independently. Thereafter, AMBA exits the partnership while remaining a knowledge partner in continuity.
