The Department of Social Justice under Government of Kerala has implemented a scheme which envisages the care, protection and rehabilitation of the disadvantaged and downtrodden marginalized population of the society. The marginalized groups mainly include those who are street dwellers, destitute, suffering from ill health, and those compelled to remain in hospitals after recovery because there is no one to look after them. With the aim of rehabilitating such target population across the state who require comprehensive rehabilitation, the Social Justice Department has expanded the service of this scheme to other districts as well.

Aims and Objectives

1. To provide care and solace to those marginalized individuals suffering from ill health and abandoned by the families and are languishing in hospitals even after recovery. Such destitute individuals require support and other care providing services.

2. Provide proper protection and rehabilitation to the destitute and the helpless.

3. Encourage voluntary organizations who are willing to work in this field.

Beneficiaries

This initiative offers hope and shelter to vulnerable adults—giving a home to those wandering destitute, and providing care to recovered hospital patients with no one to take care.
