Medical Rehabilitation:
 
From 1990 onwards we supported 205 persons with disabilities, medically by giving adaptive devices like wheel chair, caliper, hearing aids etc. and financial support for treatment, corrective surgery, physiotherapy, speech therapy etc. to improve their physical capability.
We also aim at meeting the expenses for medical care and providing financial support to buy wheel chairs, calippers, hearing aids etc. We have helped Anish Purushen a 15 year old boy who had been affected by polio, with a tricycle. He goes to school on this tricycle. We supported Sharana with ear phone, Sudheesh for surgery, Akhilesh for physiotherapy etc.
 
 
 
Social Rehabilitation:
 
 
In order to bring out the inner abilities of Persons With Disabilities we provide them with income generation programme, support for education, counseling services etc. We help them to run self-help groups too.
We assisted 269 persons with Income Generation Programme, 82 for their studies, 523 through counseling, and 15 for house maintenance.There are 27 self-help groups functioning under Snehabhavan for socially handicapped women and for persons with disabilities towards empowering them socially.
