About Us

Children's Village is a collaborative initiative:

• Chavara Special School brings years of expertise in special education, therapy, and vocational training for children with disabilities.
• Prarthana Foundation is a trusted non-profit organization dedicated to social service and empowering the underprivileged through rehabilitation and health support.

Together, we've created a centre that provides early intervention, inclusive education, and comprehensive therapy services under one roof — all accessible and affordable to families across Kerala.
