Comprehensive Rehabilitation Services for People with Disability in Uganda (CORSU)

About

CoRSU was established in 2006 as a private non profit, non government organization in Uganda after extensive consultation with various stake holders. It is a Ugandan initiative which was encouraged and supported by CBM with the main aim of expanding and improving the rehabilitation services for children and people with disability. The primary focus is on children with physical impairment for whom CoRSU provides orthopaedic and plastic/reconstructive surgical interventions and rehabilitation services. CoRSU provides free surgery for CWDs below 17 years of age; parents/guardians are expected to contribute towards hospital stay (accommodation and food).
