Ra’ad Rehabilitation Goodwill Complex was established under the laws of Islamic Republic of Iran in 1984 (Reg. No.2811). RRGC is a private charity institution, dedicated solely to promote the cause of the physically disabled community. The institution started its activities with five applicants in a temporarily donated premise of two small rooms at a charity medical clinic, located in a low income suburb, south of Tehran. RRGC now operates from its own building, a nearly 4,000 m2 (in excess of 40,000 sq.ft.) facility, constructed on a parcel of land measuring 2,800 sq m. to which RRGC holds the title deed. As an educational, philanthropic and charitable institution, Ra'ad offers three broad areas of services including: • Rehabilitation (physiotherapy, occupational and speech therapy, orthopedic and daily mental health care) • Vocational training (computer programming and operation, hardware assembly, typing, civil and industrial drafting, accounting, home appliance repairs, sewing, sculpture, flower making and pottery) • And a variety of auxiliary or support services including honorary loans, financial grants, in-house and referral medical services by volunteer physicians, transportation to and from a downtown station, library facilities, counseling services, social work assistance, home visits and marriage counseling.
