A non-profit national association was established in 2010 in Jordan, and is the first of its kind in the Arab world, as its organizers are people with psychological disabilities, and we are the first category in the Arab world that agrees that people with mental disorders are people with disabilities.

WHY PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES?
Because we believe in the holistic definition of disability according to the social theory of disability that disability lies in environmental obstacles and behavioral barriers that impede a person's access to the set of rights and freedoms guaranteed by the human rights system and our reference in that is the International Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities ratified by Jordan, which considers mental disorders as a disability.

OUR MESSAGE
Changing the stereotype and raising awareness in society about the rights of persons with psychological disabilities, enhancing our participation in decision-making processes and developing our own capacities and the capabilities of other institutions in the field of rights and issues of persons with psychological disabilities.
