SAMADHAN launched a day Care Centre for these children in Dakshinpuri in 1983. The idea was to improve the quality of lives by catering to their special needs, thus, helping in the process of their ultimate rehabilitation and integration into the mainstream   of the society. 
                          (The Times of India, 29 September, 1993).

SAMADHAN, a special education centre set up 10 years ago not only deals with handicapped children, but even their families to come to terms with their child’s handicap.                                                          
(First City, New Delhi, December, 1991).

That mental handicap is often made worse with other physical problems which vary from one individual to another, also means   that each child requires that special attention that SAMADHAN is determined to provide. 
                     
                                                                (Statesman, Sunday, March, 1995).

SAMADHAN offers you the opportunity to maximise the potential of your child with a mental handicap. It helps you to help your infant and pre-school child by providing specially designed intensive stimulation programmes.           
(Choice India, July, 1993).

Voices of children crying in the dark 
suffused with a sorrow, which untold 
remains locked forever. In small memories 
but hurting. Hurting and kept alive. Alive through 
dreams which seems to have no ending. 
Dreams for all time. Secret. Frightening. 
Listen. 
Can you hear the voices of these children? 
Children crying in the dark?                                              
(Seminar, July, 1996).

Not many seem to realise that mentally handicapped children have within them a wide range of abilities but are unable to develop them because of their handicap. Most of them cannot perhaps be cured, but if they are given early stimulation they can definitely learn several skills. With the noble objective of making disabled children independent to the best of their abilities, a Delhi-based voluntary organisation called SAMADHAN has set out to help as many as it can.
