JAGRITI’S Approach:
Jagriti believes in integrative approach which empowers children, family and community to work together towards sustainable holistic development. It believes that education and awareness generation is the means to a dignified life for children, family and community. Quality Education is the strongest tool to buildup strong foundation of children that enables them to live a life of dignity. However, quality education for children cannot be achieved and bring changes in society without empowering family,especially the mother. So empowerment of women through education, skill development for livelihood generation becomes another important focus of Jagriti. Jagriti also believes in simultaneously empowering marginalized people at community level through awareness generation on wide ranges of issues like education, healthcare, environment protection, rights and policies etc. Finally the journey of empowerment continues and brings sustainable changesin community.
