AIAS, an association operating since 1966 in support of children suffering from physical disabilities and requiring intensive physiotherapy, has over time expanded its interventions.  It now offers support to patients suffering from cognitive, neurological and language disorders.
Nowadays, in addition to the activities performed at "Aldo Moro" centre, AIAS also offers neuropsychological rehabilitation, a neuromotor service with functional recovery for adults, didactic support for children and teenagers with specific learning disabilities, and since 2012 also an experimental support project for patients with autism.
The NIWIC (NRDC-ITA Women's International Club) is a voluntary charity organization whose members are wives, companions and NRDC-ITA personnel whose aim is to improve mutual relationships among the multinational staff.  It does this in order to create a cohesive social work environment and help provide the kind of support military personnel and their families need. Among the charitable activities organized by the NIWIC there are social events, fund raising initiatives to provide for local communities, meetings for the inclusion of foreign personnel and the participation to collective cultural events.
