"Most children and adults benefited through the intervention...Four children attended
school for the first time. All families were informed of entitlements to government
facilities and concessions. Family needs in relation to young adults could not be met
directly through the project...

...Because the fieldworkers and supervisors were equipped with basic knowledge of early
identification of disability and the need for immediate referrals, there is likelihood that
they will be able to identify children with disabilities early in life so that the effects of
the disability may be decreased and there is increased potential for improvement in the
quality of the child’s life.

Nine community meetings...although small in terms of scale, brought disability out of
the family in to the public arena, thereby initiating processes of attitudinal change and
greater awareness...

At the child level, positive changes were noted in most of the "before” (i.e., pre-
intervention) and "after” (i.e., post-intervention) profiles compiled...

The impact of the project on the community volunteers was encouraging...

At the level of the partner organisations, the project co-ordinators and field workers felt
that the project had been feasible.....

It is not clear, however, whether the impact reached the entire governance of the
partner organisations...

All the partners expressed the need for further training of field workers. The
collaborative teamwork in the sites was effective in reaching out to community
members...^,,(p 294)
