To increase awareness and access to learning for all.

Chetana means awareness and that symbolizes our goal as well. What kind of awareness do we mean?

• Making children with disabilities aware of their potential, helping them to arrive at it.
• Helping all children learn.
• Helping parents help their children.
• Making people aware of the different opportunities that exist to improve their lives.

A thoughtfully designed toy can support the development of knowledge and skills in all children. Our toys are designed to meet specific developmental goals and provide children with many hours of fun & learning. All Chetana toys are created keeping the needs of children with impairments in mind.

We develop Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC) devices for individuals who are non-verbal.

The library provides toys, sports, books, audio & visual materials in urban and rural areas encouraging people of all ages and literacy levels to access information for themselves.

In several areas - health, child development, disability, adoption - people all over our country face similar challenges. Our information pamphlets give detailed information in simple language and can be downloaded freely from our web-site.
