Kalimori is a community for people with intellectual disabilities and those on the autism spectrum. Our goal is to develop talents and enhance skills so that each member can reach their full potential and improve their productive, social, and community quality of life. Kalimori's purpose is to change the way disability is viewed, recognizing individuals as strong, resilient people who defy adversity to improve their lives. Our users continue to advance and grow, demonstrating daily that our community is better because of their participation. Disability affects one in seven people worldwide, which motivates us to raise awareness and dismantle social barriers. Convinced that value lies in difference, we are committed to moving beyond the concept of "us and them." Join us and together, let's build the change we want to see in the world.
KALIMORI aims to change perceptions of disability, recognizing individuals as strong, resilient people who defy adversity to improve their quality of life. We are the only institution in Mexico to evaluate and certify adults with disabilities in the national program CONOCER* having adapted the program and offering official certificates to our beneficiaries, las year we graduated our first generation with 8 graduates and working on graduating the next generation with 12 participants. We have a positive impact on skills related to structure, presentation, order fulfillment, work ethic, and a genuine enthusiasm for work. ** CONOCER is the Mexican government body responsible for the standardization and certification of job competencies. It coordinates the National Competency System so that workers, students, teachers, entrepreneurs, and public servants can obtain an official labor certificate, regardless of how they acquired their knowledge.
Adults over 18 with intellectual disabilities and autism spectrum disorders.
