Future center

Types of Challenges

The Future Center is a center for children of special needs. It’s a place that special children go to to get care and all sorts of education. It has a very kind and friendly staff with a lot of experience. Their main aim and goal is to help and educate a special needs child and make them adjust to all aspects in life such as helping with work at home, preparing them for school or even preparing them for jobs.

The challenge the staff and participants face is huge, it ranges from teaching the children discipline all the way to math. Teaching a special needs child isn’t an easy job due to mental reasons so its quite challenging for a teacher. Some children have a special teacher or participant assigned to them alone because of how much attention they require. Other challenges for staff include having to do with what they have because the center isn’t funded by anyone so they would have to search for what companies, organizations and the public have to offer for free.

They have achieved what they have set out to achieve at the start and that’s help out the children. They have helped children get in to normal schools and helped some of the guys find jobs. They have helped a child reach his dream of representing the U.A.E in swimming at the Olympics. They have also received a lot of recognition from the government and H.H Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al-Nahyan for all their efforts in helping special needs children.

Their future goals are to expand and have more centers around the country and help as many children as possible.

It relates to cultural diversity because being special needs is physically and mentally its own culture. Some people discriminate people because of their physical appearance or because of mentally how they think which effets the way they talk.
