RASA’s work on empowerment through the theatre arts experience saw six more months of fruitful application from April till November 2021 . The structured classes for life skills training continued in the online mode and the specific training given for the festivals and Events that happened in this period were the added inputs given .
The young adults and adults with differing abilities were trained by the expert staff . The areas of life skills training covered included communication skills , creative expression, motor skills , emotion identification abd expression and the like .
Events :
A series of programmes were conducted to celebrate events such as
1. Independence Day
2. Vinayakar Chaturthi
3. Krishna Jayanti
4. Gandhi Jayanti
5. Navaratri (Dushera) and
6. Deepavali
Stories, songs, and art work were taught based on the above themes and the students had an opportunity to show case their talent online - which was streamed on YouTube / other social media platforms for the parents and other well wishers to savour and enjoy.
The students emerged confident and the parents were content with the progress of their children in independently handling the technology era .
The students were trained to make products which would be sold at our store - Anbudan.
They made mask chains, necklaces and gift envelopes , and they were trained in embroidery and paper bag making. The craft kits are sent to their homes by RASA and the students are now handling this mode of communication with ease .
