About this project
F. Ntasamaye from Mbeya CBR Simama under Caritas Development Office is responsible for this project
MBEYA CBR- SIMAMA. This is a program which was established in 2013 in the diocese of Mbeya to operate under the supervision of the Diocesan Caritas development Office. The reason behind this is well explained in the background information, that it is a result of the experience gained when running the Iyunga handicapped training center which trains the handicapped and for the case of limited capacities for rehabilitating the mentally and physical handicapped the trainings are not effective as we wish. A solution for this challenge is to introduce a project which can manage these young people to undergo their rehabilitation and once they are fit they can be linked for training more effectively. Iyunga center is earmarked to train the handicapped who are mentally and physically challenged.
