✨ NCPD Christmas Treat with Naparima College 🎄🎁

Today, the National Centre for Persons with Disabilities (NCPD) was warmly hosted by Naparima College for their Christmas Gift Giving Initiative. The Naparima College Interact Club, together with the Naparima Alumni (NAPS) and the PTA, coordinated a wonderful Christmas Treat filled with care packages, treat bags, meals, games, and festive cheer.

We were honoured to welcome the Minister of Education and Member of Parliament for San Fernando West, The Honourable Dr. Michael Dowlath, who shared encouraging words and assisted in distributing gifts and tokens to our students. 🎤🎁

A special highlight was a spirited performance by Ancil Valley, 2013 Digicel Rising Stars winner, who had our entire student population singing, smiling, and celebrating the season together. 🎶✨

This initiative was deeply appreciated by NCPD’s Management as it created a meaningful, inclusive opportunity for our students to enjoy the joy of Christmas. We extend heartfelt thanks to Naparima College, NAPS, the PTA, and all who contributed to making this day special. ❤️

Celebrating 61 Years of Service, Inclusion and Empowerment

For 61 years, the National Centre for Persons with Disabilities has stood as a pillar of hope, opportunity and transformation. Our journey began in 1964 as a small rehabilitation initiative under the orthopedic ward of the San Fernando General Hospital. With just a few trainees and a simple vision, the foundation was laid for what would become a national institution dedicated to empowering persons with disabilities.

From those humble beginnings, NCPD has grown into a respected centre for education, vocational training, rehabilitation and advocacy, serving individuals with physical, developmental, visual and hearing disabilities across Trinidad and Tobago. Our evolution reflects our unwavering commitment to progress, inclusion and dignity for all.

Our mission remains at the heart of everything we do: to enhance the quality of life of persons with disabilities towards achieving an inclusive society. Our vision continues to guide us forward: to be a world class social enterprise that promotes social inclusion for persons with disabilities.

For over six decades, we have worked tirelessly to equip our trainees with practical skills, build independence, create pathways to employment and challenge the barriers that limit opportunity. We have seen lives transformed, confidence restored and purpose rediscovered.

As we celebrate 61 years, we pause in gratitude for the resilience of our trainees, the dedication of our staff, the commitment of our partners and the unwavering support of our community.

“See the ability, not the disability.”

With this guiding principle, we look to the future with renewed faith and determination, committed to building a society where every person is valued, included and empowered.

Happy 61st Anniversary to the National Centre for Persons with Disabilities.

International Day of Persons with Disabilities 2025 – NCPD - RIGHTS . EQUITY . DIVERSITY . INCLUSION (REDI) Walkathon and Fun Day

Today, the National Centre for Persons with Disabilities proudly commemorated the International Day of Persons with Disabilities with an Awareness Walkathon, under this year’s theme: “Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future.”

Our walk symbolized unity, strength, and our commitment to empowering persons with disabilities to lead, influence, and actively contribute to their communities. It was a meaningful step in raising awareness and celebrating the abilities, potential, and contributions of persons with disabilities in our society.

We sincerely thank our students, parents, staff, and supporters who joined us in solidarity. Together, we continue to champion inclusion, amplify voices, and build a more equitable and sustainable future for all.

Different abilities. One community. One goal.

💚 Heavy… but Possible. 💚
Just like the elephant in our campaign, the challenge ahead is big — but with your kindness, it CAN be lifted.

Thanks to generous supporters, we’ve already raised $1,445. That means we have $498,555 to go to make the National Centre for Persons with Disabilities (NCPD) safe and accessible again.

Our building has been damaged by land slippage, creating cracks and uneven floors that put our trainees at risk — especially those who rely on wheelchairs, prosthetics, and mobility aids.

Your donation helps us:
✅ Strengthen the building’s structure
✅ Fix dangerous flooring
✅ Improve accessibility (ramps, handrails, adaptive restrooms)
✅ Upgrade classrooms & therapy spaces

🐘 The load is heavy, but together it’s possible.
Every dollar brings us one step closer to restoring safety, dignity, and hope.

Our trainees at the National Centre for Persons with Disabilities (NCPD) deserve a safe place to learn, grow, and thrive. 💛

But cracks in our building from land slippage are putting them at risk.

We need $500,000 to repair, retrofit, and make NCPD fully accessible — classrooms, therapy rooms, ramps, and more.

Every donation helps protect dignity, ensure safety, and transform lives.

💪 Join us in rebuilding hope today:
