Tibetan Ability Center (TAC) was founded by Tibetan physiotherapist Mr. Tsering in 2009 with the seed money from Prof. Peter Berne and Syamatara Tibet Hilfe Association to address the need of rehabilitation support for the differently abled person living in various Tibetan refugee settlements in India. Despite limited resources, TAC has consistently remained active in fulfilling its mission and catering services to the Tibetan people with special needs. We are extremely grateful to all our donors and supporters for their love, trust, and encouragement.
