Welcome!
Di.To is aimed at families of children with disabilities aged from birth to 10 years.
It is based on partnership between the professionals of the Che Fare counselling service that is part of Area Onlus, a Turin association with 25 years experience in the field of disability,
Working with parents has taught us the importance of sharing resources, information and experience, as well as the need to design and produce new instruments to improve and facilitate an exchange of ideas, advice, and of ordinary and out of the ordinary pathways.
In responding to this need, Area Onlus in 2006, in partnership with Fish Piemonte, published and distributed Di.To 0-6, a guide to city resources for parents and children, a tool to provide effective guidance to the world of disability, in which all too often bureaucratic jargon prevails, together with a lack of clarity about services and facility options.
The success obtained by the guide and support from parents, has led us to design this website which means to offer guidance to city resources and disability-related information in a simple, quick and up-to-date format.
The website contains:
-
Pathways (Percorsi), with six thematic areas linked to services, regulatory provisions and the FAQs families address providers;
-
Community, an area to exchange ideas, suggestions and objects with other families whose life experience is comparable to your own;
-
Tools (Strumenti), closely associated with Pathways and targeted at Internet users looking for easy access to useful links, news and relevant events. The From our editorial staff (Dalla redazione) and Dreams, signs and drawings (Sogni segni e disegni) sections contain information about books, essays and performances as well as a creative area developed by well-known authors and illustrators where you and your children can read and draw.
Di.To is an Area Onlus project and has been developed thanks to the contributions of Fondazione CRT, “Saper Donare Insieme 2007”.
