Today is the 34th National Day for the Disabled.
In order to allow people with disabilities to live without worry,
Better integrate into society and realize self-worth
Caojing Town has taken multiple measures at the same time, focusing on helping the disabled,
With two "100%"
It holds up the happy life of the disabled.
Qin Jun is a physically disabled person, and more than ten years ago, he was recommended by the Caojing Town Disabled Persons' Federation to become a dormitory patrol officer of Shanghai Zhedong Aluminum Co., Ltd. On weekdays, he works with his colleague Cheung Wai-keung, who is also physically disabled, and is mainly responsible for the cleaning and sanitation of the dormitory and the safety inspection of electricity.
Qin Jun told reporters that he has been working here for more than ten years, and the most obvious change is that his salary has risen, but the benefits and warmth have not decreased at all. "When I first worked, my salary was more than 600 yuan, and now, my salary is more than 2,000 yuan, nearly 3,000 yuan!" Qin Jun said.
I was also deeply touched by Zhao Guisu, an employee of the company, who has a hearing disability and has difficulty communicating with others. To this end, Zhedong Aluminum provided him with the position of horticulturist, responsible for pruning and maintaining the flowers and trees in the enterprise. In Zhao Guisu's eyes, work can cover family expenses, and the company is very considerate of employees, so this job has been done for 18 years.
At present, a total of 116 disabled people are employed in Zhedong Aluminum, and they have become an indispensable part of the development and growth of the enterprise in the workshop, canteen, dormitory and garden. Zhu Suming, manager of the comprehensive management department of Shanghai Zhedong Aluminum Co., Ltd., told reporters that when interviewing disabled employees, they will fully consider the degree and level of their disabilities, and then match them according to the existing positions.
In recent years, the Caojing Town Disabled Persons' Federation has actively expanded the positions suitable for the disabled, so that the employable disabled can integrate into the society and realize their self-worth. At present, except for the severely disabled who enjoy the minimum living guarantee for the severely disabled and unemployed, the employment rate of the disabled in Caojing Town has been maintained at 100%. "In the next step, we plan to actively communicate with surrounding companies to see if we can provide some jobs with higher technical content and higher wages for people with disabilities of appropriate age, so as to continuously improve their quality of life." Li Haichao, vice chairman of the Caojing Town Disabled Persons' Federation, revealed.
In addition to providing jobs for the disabled, the Caojing Town Disabled Persons' Federation also organizes health check-ups for some disabled people every year, and the family doctor contract rate reaches 100%. Contracted family doctors carry out regular follow-up visits, so that people with disabilities can also enjoy accurate rehabilitation consultation and services at home.
"Auntie! Hello, I'm here to follow up with Lu Wei, is he at home? ”
Early in the morning, Dr. Guo Hui from the Caojing Town Community Health Service Center began a follow-up visit. Lu Wei is an intellectually disabled person, and Guo Hui is particularly concerned about his physical and mental condition. Knowing that Lu Wei had successfully found a job, Guo Hui told his mother Li Jinjuan to cultivate his ability to communicate with others. The intimate words of the family doctor made Li Jinjuan very warm. "The family doctor came a lot and helped us a lot," she said. ”
In the future, Caojing Town will continue to optimize the service connotation of the contracted family doctor, adjust and optimize the content of the contracted service, care for every disabled person and their family, and make the family doctor truly become their "health gatekeeper".
It is reported that there are 1,271 licensed disabled people in Caojing Town, accounting for about 6.5% of the disabled people in the district. In order to give the disabled a greater sense of belonging and happiness, the Town Disabled Persons' Federation has specially created a "Sunshine Home" to open up gardens, orchards and vegetable gardens to enrich the spare time life of the disabled. "In addition, there are three institutions in the Sunshine Home, namely the Sunshine Heart Garden for the Mentally Handicapped and the Sunshine Home and Assistance Center for the Mentally Handicapped, which are used by the disabled people in the town, covering functions such as education and training, rehabilitation training, leisure and entertainment." Li Haichao said.
The employment rate of school-age disabled persons is 100%, and the contract rate between disabled people and family doctors is 100%, and Caojing Town has truly realized the joint construction and sharing of economic and social development achievements by disabled people.
On the occasion of the National Day for the Disabled, Luxiang Town also used the method of "literature and art + sports" to show the positive spiritual outlook of the disabled group.
"We've been training for half a year on this show, and we're finally going to show it today." In the 2024 "National Day for the Disabled" literary and artistic performance in Jinshan District, the students of Sunshine Home in Luxiang Town prepared early, and they brought the dragon dance program "Dragon Walking Star Home" to the audience with full enthusiasm and sunny attitude. Every drop of sweat they swayed has turned into a bright star on the stage, and this achievement and joy can only be deeply experienced and understood by themselves and their hard-working instructors.
At the same time, the Spring Paralympic Games held by Luxiang Middle School also attracted much attention. About 160 people with disabilities, referees and volunteers participated in a variety of competitions, such as sit-ups, standing long jump, 50-meter track and field, fixed-point shooting, and "catching the ball" around obstacles. This is not only a competition in sports, but also a concentrated display of the self-esteem, self-confidence, self-improvement and self-reliance of para athletes. Their sweat on the field, every effort, every breakthrough, is the best interpretation of the spirit of self-improvement and tenacious struggle, and conveys the positive energy of the disabled group.

Chen Xuefeng
In Luxiang Town, the outstanding representatives of the disabled group are even more shining. Paralympic athlete Li Ting has repeatedly achieved great results in the international arena with her indomitable fighting spirit and outstanding performance. She represented the Chinese team in the 2023 Asian Sitting Volleyball Championships, the 4th Asian Para Games in Hangzhou, and the 2023 Sitting Volleyball World Cup Women's Group, and successfully won the championship and won honor for the country. Chen Xuefeng also shines in the field of professional skills. In the 7th National Vocational Skills Competition for the Disabled, he won the first place in the country in the typist (text processing) project for his extraordinary typing skills and deep professional knowledge. Their achievements are not only personal glory, but also a vivid portrayal of the self-improvement spirit of the disabled people in Luxiang Town.
In order to further promote this spirit, the Youth League Committee of Lvxiang Town and the Women's Federation joined hands with Lvxiang School to jointly plan the public welfare activity of "Caring for the Disabled and Walking in the Lane". The students of Sunshine Home showed extraordinary wisdom and courage in the activity, and painted imaginative works in a DIY way of pulp texture painting, conveying their love for life and vision for the future.
"We will continue to uphold the concept of 'people-oriented', practice the mission of helping people with disabilities with practical actions, and provide all-round and multi-level care and support for people with disabilities. At the same time, we also hope that such activities can enhance the understanding and care of the society for people with disabilities, and jointly create a more inclusive and harmonious social environment. The person in charge of the Youth League Committee of Luxiang Town said.
