About Hospital and Rehabilitation Centre for Disabled Children
In 1988 a new relationship was established with the American Himalayan Foundation, which helped HRDC further expand its services. In 1992, the ownership of the program was transferred to the Friends of the Disabled (FOD), a Nepalese non-governmental organization. The Friends of the Disabled continues to increase the number of children reached, by providing a comprehensive, high quality package of services; including hospital-based and field-based services to address the gap in care for children with physical disability in Nepal. With the help and support of additional donors such as the Luxembourg government and scouts, HRDC was able to relocate into our current comprehensive facilitiy in Banepa in 1997.HRDC’s growth continues to benefit the disabled in Nepal. In 1993, our 54 staff members provided services to a total of 4,638 children with disabilities; of these, 515 cases included surgery. Over two decades later, HRDC now employs 230 staff, and in 2017, provided over 25,000 consultations and performed over 2,300 surgeries.
