We are committed to creating an inclusive and nurturing environment where individuals with diverse needs can flourish. Our work extends beyond care and therapy—we build opportunities for personal growth, employment, and community integration.
We provide community, support, and developmental therapies ranging from psychological to art, music, and physiotherapy, to children from 1-18 years old at our Emili Aregak Center.

Those in the Gyumri community who interact with us including neighborhoods kids who play in the inclusive playground, people who visit the bakery & café experience a higher level of awareness of diversity and get opportunities to interact with people with disabilities who are often hidden in this society.
