NCCR was established as an initiative by a group of persons with disabilities and has been in operation in Gaza City since August 1995.

NCCR interventions have evolved with the changing needs and opportunities of persons with disabilities in the Gaza Strip. NCCR has an extensive know-how in rehabilitation since it has been working on home care for 22 years, providing support to female and male persons with disabilities at all ages in all Gaza governorates, without consideration to any ethnic or political ground. NCCR is working from a broad approach towards rehabilitation, meaning that it promotes not only medical rehabilitation, but also psychological and social rehabilitation of physically disabled persons.
