Resumo: Our organization was established in 1965 as an initiative of a group of parents of persons with mental disabilities, who initially searched for adequate schooling of their children.

Those were the first steps of the association, which in 1970 was declared a public utility organization and has currently a wide range of centers which offer multiple services and can attend to more than 1.000 users.
