🏢 About the local organisation

Philippine Accessible Disability Services, Inc. (PADS) is an independent non-government organization, working to enable the PWD community to grow and develop as independent integrated, fully human and empowered citizens in society. PADS works closely with various partners and stakeholders on programs that aim to promote deaf human rights and volunteering for the deaf community, increase participation of the Deaf in electoral processes and enhance skills access and opportunities of the Filipino Sign Language (FSL). It is part of the Break the Silence (BTS) Network in the Philippines, a campaign strategy started by the Stairway Foundation Inc. to advocate for child sexual abuse prevention. PADS plays a vital role in the BTS network as it brings in a unique, much-needed expertise and program experience on working with deaf children and adults.
