We are ordinary families doing extraordinary things

familias y retos extraordinarios

We are a community made up of families with children who live with multiple disabilities because of a rare disease, epilepsy syndrome, or another chronic diagnosis.

 

We contribute to the solution of problems such as discrimination, omission, and violence that people with disabilities and their caregivers experience.

 

We demand the effective implementation of the rule of law through the democratization of knowledge, civic empowerment, and citizen activation.

We are part of the Citizen Observatory of Human Rights

of the Federal Institute of the Public Defender since its foundation (February 2019) 

 

We are part of the Global Alliance for Care (December 2022)

Programs

Through our programs, we want to provide knowledge, tools, and resources to families with children with intellectual disabilities, autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and multiple disabilities.

Derecho al Cuidado Digno

Since 2016, we have been raising the unpaid care workers voices for the recognition of the right to dignified care in its three dimensions: the right to care for oneself, the right to care others and the right to receive care.

Cambiadores Inclusivos

Enough of changing our loved ones on the floor, in the trunks, planters or benches!  Dignity, safety and accessibility are rights, not favors!

Mission

We are a community of families helping families who face the challenge of raising and enjoying children and youth with intellectual, psychosocial and multiple disabilities. We offer help from a perspective of human rights, care and disability to access, exercise and demand their rights. Always starting from citizen participation and activation, and legal empowerment.

Vision

To ensure that families of children and youth with disabilities are recognized as a priority population to be part of the decision-making process in the development and implementation of public policy that guarantees the progressiveness of their rights and autonomy, thus achieving effective access to the rule of law.

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."

Margaret Mead (1901-1978)
