Mohammed VI national center for people with special needs

Pursuant to instructions by His Majesty King Mohammed VI, the Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity built, in Salé, the Mohammed VI national center for people with special needs.

The center is meant to be a multifunctional facility designed to serve people with special needs. It is a cooperative project involving the Ministry of Health, the department in charge of people with special needs as well as the institutional and civil society actors concerned.

Ever since its creation, the Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity made sustainable development the pillar of its strategy. Thus, many activities targeting the integration of underprivileged segments of the population have been carried out.

Micro credit has proven to be an effective tool in fighting poverty and social exclusion.

Building on its successful experience in setting up social programs for underprivileged segments of the population and on its ability to share the expertise it gained in the field, the Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity sought, in 2006, to implement an action plan highlighting the Foundation’s know-how as well as optimal use of human resources. In keeping with its guiding philosophy, the Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity sought to promote trainings in social work through the creation of a specialized center, namely the Solidarity Action Training Center, CFAS.
