SRI AMAN: The Sri Aman Community Rehabilitation Centre (PDK) needs a printer and laptop to strengthen its administrative work and support daily learning activities.
Jawatankuasa Amal dan Kesihatan Komuniti (JAKKSA) chairman Gerald Empaling said the needs were identified during the committee’s visit to the centre.
“Our visit gave us a clearer understanding of the centre’s needs in managing its operations and supporting trainees’ learning.
“The centre needs several essential items, including a printer and laptop, to support its administration and daily learning activities,” he said in a statement.
Gerald, who is a lawyer by trade, said JAKKSA intended to return with further welfare initiatives, although the contributions for this visit were arranged at short notice.
The delegation distributed food baskets to recipients in need and was received by the centre’s deputy secretary Annie Jong, who briefed members on its progress and current challenges.
The centre records an average daily attendance of 26 trainees and can accommodate up to 40 at any one time. Most of its trainees have learning difficulties.
Learning sessions are divided into two groups, with adults aged 18 to 26 attending on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, while children below 18 attend on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
The delegation also toured a sensory room supervised by Droma Albert Jang, which provides trainees with a space for therapy and relaxation.
