TWI for the Children's Projects for Persons with Special Needs

 

Family Retreat at Rama for Special Needs Children:

TWI hosts a 2-day retreat  for  children with special needs and their families at the "House of Peace" in Rama central Bosnia, during the summer. 

 

 

 At this camp the children and  their families  play games, take part in crafts, songs, dance and stories and  have an opportunity to relax with their families in a beautiful place of rest.

 

 This retreat is spiritual and relaxing plus it provides an opportunity to have good food prepared by the Monastery's nuns. 

 

The children are able to leave the confines of their small apartments in Sarajevo and enjoy the beauty of nature.

Learning Center  

  In 2006, the “ Learning Center for Special Needs Children ” now registered in Sarajevo as the Association of Mothers with Children with Special Needs.  “Joy of Life” made Training Workshops International (TWI) for the Children, Inc. a member of their Advisory Board, serving as educational advisors for their children, teachers and parents. In this capacity, TWI for the Children, Inc. helps organize projects for teachers, caretakers and parents that teach such topics as how to work with children with disabilities, learning disorders, attention deficit disorders, trauma, drug and alcohol prevention and ways parents can work with their children in the home.  The "Learning Center" sought financial assistance to increase the size of their facility and to improve their program by developing a musical activity for the children with special needs. TWI for the Children, Inc. provides  financial support to allow the Center to operate its physical plant and instructor base.
