| Project Description | The MANAV Foundation is a charitable trust, founded in 2004 registered under section 18 - 19 of the Bombay Public Trusts Act, 1950. Under its umbrella, the Manav Mental Health Project was established in response to achieve inclusion of individuals living with Mental Illness.
Recognizing the scarcity of Mental Health resources, MANAV Foundation is dedicated to including marginalized individuals with Mental Illness into society. Our vision is "Inclusion, by widening the horizons of Mental Health to ensure its recognition, importance and acceptance as a necessary component of society." Our mission is to engage all systems for the holistic development of individuals with Mental Illness.
MANAV Foundation served all adults across socio-economic backgrounds, emphasizing inclusivity and accessibility to Mental Health services for everyone, regardless of financial status. Since inception, no potential beneficiary in need of our care has been turned away, including individuals and families who found themselves unable to pay the fees that were initiated as a “sliding scale”. Today, this programme offered our benificiries lunch, medication and travel expenses of destitute and economically disadvantaged individuals living with Mental Illness.

| Beneficiary Description | We cater to adult beneficiaries aged 18 and above, coming from diverse socio-economic backgrounds.Under the Client Welfare Programme, a total of 7 clients benefited from the support provided. The benefits extended to them included travel assistance, lunch, therapeutic services, and medication. |
| Impact | The sliding scale fee structure at Manav Rehabilitation Centre has had a transformative impact on the lives of individuals and families navigating Mental Health challenges. By committing to never turn away a beneficiary due to financial constraints, we have created a truly inclusive space. Our model has enabled a significant number of individuals from low-income and financially vulnerable backgrounds to access consistent, high-quality mental health services. Many clients who would have otherwise been excluded from care due to financial hardship have received therapy and psychosocial rehabilitation support without interruption. Our sliding scale structure reflects our commitment to social justice. It directly challenges systemic barriers that prevent marginalized individuals from accessing Mental Health care and contributes to a broader culture of inclusion and equality within our community. |
