Grama Vidhya Program

The Grama Vidhya Program by ARLES aims to improve access to quality education for children in marginalized rural communities. Focusing on regular school attendance, girl child education, and holistic development, the program serves 600 children across 15 villages in Nirmal District. Key objectives include promoting girl child education, increasing female enrollment, educating parents on the importance of education and nutrition, and providing career guidance. By fostering a volunteer-driven support system, ARLES strengthens community involvement in education. The program has led to higher school attendance, greater female participation, and increased parental awareness, driving long-term positive change in rural communities.

AMMA CHADUVU Program – Education for PVTG Communities

ARLES launched the AMMA Chaduvu Program to promote education among Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) in two villages. This volunteer-driven initiative encourages the enrollment of tribal children in Anganwadi and primary schools, ensuring they receive foundational education. It also raises awareness among mothers about the importance of schooling, urging them to stop involving children in brick kilns, agriculture, and manual labor. By shifting family priorities toward education, the program fosters inclusion and long-term development. So far, AMMA Chaduvu has positively impacted 60 families by enrolling their children in school and building a brighter future for marginalized tribal communities.
