At the launch of Noida’s latest Cross Disability Early Intervention Center (CDEIC), Dr. Virendra Kumar, Union Minister for Social Justice and Empowerment, passionately advocated for parents as the foremost influencers in child therapy. During the January 23 ceremony at NIEPID Sector-40, he remarked that knowledgeable, supported parents ensure no child with developmental challenges lags behind.
Reaffirming governmental resolve for inclusive early aid, Dr. Kumar positioned early childhood intervention as a cornerstone national imperative. He detailed the profound impact of the first six years on neural development, wellness, cognition, and social bonds—outcomes that echo through lifetimes.
Praising CDEIC as emblems of proactive, scientific compassion, he mandated the Noida facility to pioneer standards, transcending physical setups to embrace tech innovations, proficient teams, and research-backed strategies. Families remain pivotal; he ordered structured, certified training to elevate parents and caregivers as co-navigators in developmental paths.
His forward-looking plan sees CDEICs as innovation hubs fostering hope through DEPwD synergies. Continuous service bolstering will unlock potentials for children with delays or disabilities, promoting societal inclusion. DEPwD’s Additional Secretary Manmeet Kaur Nanda celebrated the 28th center’s addition, highlighting ministry focus on early screening and intervention, while motivating NIEPID for superior, child-and-family-centric operations.
For ages 0-6 facing developmental hurdles, CDEIC delivers integrated care: occupational and physio therapies, speech support, consultations, special ed, counseling, school readiness—all centralized. Advanced infrastructure targets Noida region’s vast needs.
Dignitaries explored facilities, inclusive schools, mobile units. Special kids enthralled with performances; aids, devices, curricula distributed. Culminating in tree-planting, the event symbolized nurturing growth, green futures, swift care, and communal pledges for every child’s blossoming.
