About

Disability Rights Association of Goa (DRAG) is a disabled persons organization started 20 years ago with the main objective of bringing people with disability into the mainstream society. We are Goa's 1st disabled persons organization. We are also the first organization in Goa working for persons with disability to highlight disability related issues on the social media.

 We were the ones who started the practice of felicitating persons with disability for outstanding achievement in the year 2007. Our activities are lobbying with the Government on disability related issues, conducting disability sensitization programmes, sharing information on disability matters and networking with organisations for the welfare of persons with disability. We are affiliated to the National Centre for Promotion of Employment of Disabled Persons New Dehi and are members of the Goa State Advisory Board on disability and Goa State Consumer Protection Council, Government of Goa. We also have a representation on the Goa State Legal Services Authority with myself as a member. We have been awarded the Godfrey Phillips Bravery Award for year 2004-2005 for exceptional act of social courage and the Goa State Award for Best NGO for welfare of persons with disability in the year 2007.
