Our Programs
Advancing People's Agenda
E Community
The project is based on the findings of the Community Needs Assessment in 7 Slums of Pithampur Industrial Area.
Health- The project is on a community health approach and promotion of health seeking behavior among adults as well as children.
Remedial Education- The remedial education component of the program works on a two-way model. The first model is to provide supplementary education to children attending schools The second component is that of identifying dropout children from within the village and to align them with the process of education through life skill-based education.
Women Empowerment:Â The program proposes over a period of 5 years to form Self Help Groups, their training and capacity building on group dynamics and book keeping, followed by handholding support in terms of facilitating regular meetings, bank account opening and credit support for micro-entrepreneurial initiatives.
Most of our efforts pertaining to this program involve studying new approaches and developing innovative ways to implement them. We evaluate our success in this field by gathering qualitative and quantitative data, and using that information to measure shifts and changes from our baseline measurements.
Aarogyam
Aarogyam is intended to improve access to and quality of community health services and information; to enable the active engagement of beneficiaries in seeking health care at the community level throughout the project area; and to contribute to the establishment of well-functioning referral.
Major Components of the Program:
Preventive Health Care: Preventive health care also known as prophylaxis are the measures we take for preventing any disease. Preventive Healthcare includes the use of any medical service or precautions that fight against the potential health crisis.
Curative Health Care: Curative care refers to treatment and therapies provided to a patient with the main intent of fully resolving an illness and the goal of bringing the patient—ideally—to their status of health before the illness presented itself.
Awareness: Awareness plays a key role in our approach to improving access to healthcare. We seek to empower communities, and patients with appropriate tools, information and skills so that they can make high-quality, informed decisions on prevention, diagnosis, treatment, care, and support
Referral Liaison : An effective referral system ensures an in depth relationship between all levels of the health system and helps to make sure people receive the simplest possible care closest to home. It also assists in making cost-effective use of hospitals and first health care services.
Tashi- Promoting Craftsmanship

Focused on preserving cultural heritage, it catalyzes economic growth while fostering the artistic legacy of Chikan and Zari craftsmanship.
Chikan and Zari, exquisite Indian handicrafts, epitomize timeless elegance. Chikan involves delicate embroidery, creating intricate patterns on fabric, while Zari employs metallic threads for opulent embellishments. Originating from Lucknow, these crafts showcase masterful artistry, symbolizing tradition and sophistication in every meticulously crafted stitch and embellishment.
Sashakt Gram-Health

Samarthya
Samarthya is Sambhav’s flagship disability inclusion programme that brings Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) to rural and peri-urban areas of Pithampur, Rau and nearby villages in Dhar and Indore districts. It works with an estimated 5,500 persons with disabilities and their families, building on the strong foundation of Sambhav’s Aarogyam health project to provide integrated support in health, education, livelihoods and social participation. Through village-level outreach, home visits, medical and rehabilitation camps, physiotherapy, assistive devices, counselling and linkages with government schemes, Samarthya helps children, youth and adults with disabilities move from isolation to dignity, independence and active participation in community life.​
The programme focuses on early identification, inclusive education, skills and job linkages, and the formation of Disability Support Groups so that persons with disabilities and caregivers become vocal leaders of change in their own communities. Special attention is given to women with disabilities and women caregivers, with livelihood training, support groups and gender sensitisation ensuring that inclusion is both rights-based and gender-responsive. By working closely with Panchayats, schools, health systems and local industries, Samarthya aims to create barrier-free villages that reflect the spirit of the RPwD Act 2016 and the Sustainable Development Goals, making “Inclusion, dignity and opportunity for all” a lived reality rather than a slogan.
