KUALA LUMPUR: To most parents, having children with learning disabilities is a major concern, and it can be quite a challenge when they get older.

To enable these adults with autism or Down Syndrome or slow learners to be independent, an NGO – Dignity and Services (D&S) – has been carrying out supported living programmes to equip them with life and communication skills since 2007.
