Pertubuhan Pemulihan Kawasan Negeri Johor (JARO) is a pioneering non-governmental organization in Malaysia dedicated to the rehabilitation and empowerment of individuals with disabilities (OKU). Established as the first rehabilitation center for disabled citizens in the country, JARO focuses on providing training, care, and employment opportunities to enhance the quality of life for its participants.

Empowerment Initiatives
The organization aims to empower individuals with disabilities by equipping them with skills that enable them to secure gainful employment. This not only fosters independence but also integrates them into the workforce, challenging societal perceptions about disabilities[2][3][7].
