Emboldened by the success of ‘‘NEERAJA’, CADABAM’S has added a new dimension to the concept of conventional rehabilitation by setting up "AAKANKSHA" which is a supported living facility and ‘means a lofty desire’.
 “AAKANKSHA” is a hostel for substantially rehabilitated residents, who are functional. The residents require a supportive atmosphere to build up their self-confidence and their skills and ability to face society at large when they get back home. The families in many cases also doubt and hesitate, as they had earlier experienced the harsh episodes of a relapse. to overcome these lurking fears, such residents who have almost recovered will be encouraged to live an independent life at "AAKANKSHA" a 30-beedded hostel where they re-live group living, practice self-management, blend freely with the society as different from the sheltered care of CADABAM'S Rehabilitation Centres. The Hostilities’ will be under the care of CADABAM'S Psychiatrist, counsellors, and Nurses who regularly interact with them to profess and prepare them to go back to the family & society. |
