Capt. Norbert Francis Rebello was born and brought up in Mumbai and is now living in Goa for two decades. Since college he has been deeply involved in social work and counselling for the betterment of the lives of people. To enhance his knowledge about humans and the problems faced by all including special children and adolescents he pursued his master’s in Counselling from the Indian institute of counselling, New Delhi.
Capt. Norbert Rebello joined the shipping industry at the age of 19. He is still sailing and has completed 43 years out at sea out of which he has served for more than 25 years as captain on board ship. He has a Master’s degree from the prestigious Royal Marine Institute of Technology, Melbourne, Australia. He is the author of three published books and his sketches are placed all over the world and sold for charity purposes.
When on land he does social service and assists people. It was during this time that one of his close associates gave birth to a child with cerebral palsy. This made him take interest in children with mental health development and special needs. When abroad he visited clinics and centres in various countries. Here he realized that these special children were being taken care of with love and understanding. The major difference was the love willingly showered on these children that helped them improve faster.
When he had a child with special needs, he sought out various doctors and places in Goa. With not many options available he had to travel to various places for assessment of the child. He also has several close friends, neighbours, relatives with these blessed children who needed care and therapy.
Born and brought up in the beautiful coastal village of Benaulim, Mr Sidney Dias is a successful businessman and an active social worker. A decade ago he met Capt. Norbert Rebello and in time their friendship blossomed.
They always had thoughts for the betterment of Goa and the locals around. They noted the increasing new generation of children with special needs and the problems faced by them. With people struggling with various mental health challenges and difficulties in daily life they decided to make a positive change. Their intention is to help these people enhance their sustainable skills and knowledge and give them opportunities to exercise their constitutional rights and their full participation and contribution to the community.
Not happy with the services provided in Goa they have made it their mission to bring about positive changes in the lives of all people facing mental challenges, irrespective of race, age or gender through a range of well thought services. It is their innovative idea to start a centre with everything under one roof. This includes a resource room, vocational training and a 24X7 assistance service for the guardians and parents where they can reach out for help in time of need.
