Residential care and Empowerment of girls and women with disability: The situation of Physically Challenged Girls is quite severe due to neglect by the family, lack of support, lack of integration at all levels in the society including that of education, medical, vocational and employment support services. When they belong to poor families the condition is further worsened and totally neglected. Realising this special need Margadarshi has taken up home for the physically challenged girls – from this home they are supported for their education and vocational training services in addition to grooming them to develop leadership and life skills.

Educational support services to challenged students: Due to lack of awareness, poverty, and structural barrier many physically challenged children are left out of school. They are often considered not fit for education. On the contrary, it is only the education which can help them overcome the challenges imposed by their physical conditions. To encourage the education of those who are physically challenged in addition being socially and economically backward, Margadarshi is continuously engaged to support such children by putting them back into the mainstream education system through counselling, scholarship, and other required support services. Beneficiaries: 3000 persons. Budget: INR 33.08 Lakhs

Through these services the effects of physical disability is minimized and over a period of time they get groomed to become confident and contributing members of the society. Beneficiaries: 1000.
