The World Bank has blessed The Maia Chung Autism and Disabilities Foundation (MCADF) Autism Kiosk established by the Foundation in collaboration with the Jamaica Library Service and Courts Jamaica Limited; with a wonderful resource to augment what we have been gathering to educate the public on various disabilities including Autism since the kiosk was established.
World Bank Consultant Gerrard McDaniel has provided our Kiosk with the latest World Report on Disability a joint effort of the World Bank and the World Health Organisation (WHO) and this comprehensive document will be handed over to the Kiosk for use by the public as at Monday March 25-2013.
This means that all persons with need for information to improve their lives, studies and knowledge base to make Jamaica a better place for the disabled will have more, credible, relevant, helpful and valid information to call upon as we forge ahead to make Jamaica a better place for our disabled community.
HATS OFF to Mr. McDaniel and his team.
Please remember the Kiosk is located at Tom Redcam Library in Kingston Jamaica and is open Mondays to Fridays between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. I am sure they are open on Saturdays also. All you have to do is plan you day to go there and you will be well assisted by the able team of the JLS upon requesting information from the KIOSK.
The use of the Kiosk is free to all come prepared to photo copy , we have videos, audio CDs, theses done by students of the country's most prestigious Universities and materials of all types local and overseas resources.
I am very happy the work continues in a positive way.
Share the info if you can.
