To provide appropriate education, intervention, training and advocacy which will lead to awareness, empowerment and employment of people with disabilities with the help and support of trained staff and caregivers and to take measures for prevention, cure and mitigation of disabling conditions.

The Journey...
A group of people with visual impairment got together in 1954 and decided to start a Recreation Club for the Blind. This small club is now a large multi-faceted agency providing a wide gamut of services-from prevention, education, counselling, rehabilitation to employment and self sustaining with outstanding dignity. BPA believes in rights of people with disabilities and involves all stakeholders in programme planning. BPA India works incessantly for ensuring that people with disabilities are included in their communities. Today, BPA India is one of the largest organizations in Asia working with and for all categories of disabilities.
