Our Approach
Adhaar's Vision
To begin with there were only seven students and the parents who approached us for admission literally cried and said “we have lost all hopes in life as these children are a burden to us!” We were deeply touched by the plight of these parents and aspired to bring a smile on the face of these parents. Thus we came up with vision of “training these special people and equip them with enough skills to carry out means of employment and grow into interdependent individuals”.
Our Story
Adhaar's Mission
To fulfill our vision we took up the mission of training these special people in ADLs (Activities of daily living) like: eating, bathing, dressing, cleaning and so on. Once these children learn these preliminary skills they are put on vocational training in Cocoon craft and Fine arts. We have planned to diversify the vocational training by introducing additional development programs like carpentry to begin with.
