Community Reintegration and Inclusion Programme
Have you ever wondered what life looks like after a spinal injury recovery? Many survivors struggle with returning to community life due to stigma, lack of accessibility and limited opportunities for participation in social and economic activities.
At Spinal Injuries Support Society (SISS) Uganda, we believe that recovery is not complete until a person is fully reintegrated into their family, community and society. Through our Connect Programme, we support survivors to rebuild social relationships, participate in community life and live independently with dignity and confidence.
We work to ensure that people living with spinal injuries are not isolated but are active, valued and included members of society.
Rebuilding Lives Through Inclusion and Connection
Community reintegration is essential for emotional well-being, independence and long-term recovery. Our Connect Programme focuses on breaking barriers and creating opportunities for meaningful participation.
Our Connect Programme provides support through:
- Community reintegration and follow-up visits
- Independent living skills training
- Peer support networks and survivor groups
- Social inclusion and recreational activities
- Leadership and self-advocacy development
- Family reunification and relationship rebuilding support
- Community awareness and stigma reduction initiatives
- Support for participation in education, work and community activities
Who Can Benefit?
This programme serves people living with spinal cord injuries and illnesses, their families, caregivers and communities working towards inclusion and social participation.
