The Kiwanis Down Syndrome Foundation (KDSF) National Centre was established in 1989 by members of the Kiwanis Club of Kuala Lumpur to provide education and support for children with Down Syndrome. The center has since grown to become a leading provider of early intervention and therapy services for these children in Malaysia.
The Kiwanis Job Training Center (KJTC) was set up in late 1996 and operated by the Kiwanis Club of Metro-Kuala Lumpur (KC-MKL) to provide training to a selected group of teenagers and young adults diagnosed as ‘persons with learning disabilities’ (PLD’s). The main purpose of KJTC is to train these PLD’s with basic job skills to enable them to eventually enter the employment world, on either a full-time or part time basis.
