Right to Live Society (RLS), established in 1992, is the first and unique Palestinian organization that works on rehabilitation of individuals with Down's syndrome in different stages. RLS provides its rehabilitation and humanitarian services through its own centres and extended its service today to children with Autism for more than 850 beneficiaries supervised by 200 employees. OFID assisted in the project "Support Rehabilitation and Humanitarian Services and Activities provided for Children with Down's syndrome and Autism". The project benefited directly 150 children and indirectly 4,400 families of individuals with down's syndrome and Autism in the Gaza strip.
