Vision

Prevention & alleviation of developmental disability in children with brain damage.

Mission

To enable children with brain damage and their families to live a happy, healthy and dignified life in an inclusive society through rehabilitation services, capacity building, community engagement and advocacy.

● Increased awareness about special needs and interventions in the community/families. ● Lack of qualified and education service providers in the sector. ● Pedagogy based on science of child development and knowledge of grassroot conditions.
TAMAHAR – (Sanskrit portmanteau – Tamas (Darkness) Hara (Remove) )- Looking to remove the darkness that envelopes our lives while dealing with disability due to illiteracy, emotional and societal barriers to growth, social norms and biases, etc.
Believe it was predestined, I am a trained Occupational Therapist with multiple other trainings under my belt. This knowledge had to be used to provide services to as much of the population with childhood disabilities as possible regardless of their financial capability.
