About us

We, the Harghita County Association for People with Disabilities, have been committed to representing the interests of people with disabilities since 1990, and we work to prevent their isolation by supporting their social inclusion.

Our work is wide-ranging and carried out through a variety of services, with a presence in Miercurea Ciuc, Odorheiu Secuiesc, Gheorgheni and Sândominic alike.

In our work we pay particular attention to day activities for adults and children, kinetotherapy and speech therapy, horse-assisted therapy (Ciaracio), the rental and maintenance of medical aids, the running of a sheltered home, and social advocacy and counselling.
