Empowering Adolescents in Surat Slums
Navsarjan tackles the challenges faced by adolescents in Surat's slums, aiming to create a brighter future filled with opportunity.
Urgent Needs:
  • Guidance and Support: Many adolescents lack positive role models and are exposed to negative influences like violence and substance abuse.
  • Health and Wellbeing: Poor sanitation, limited healthcare access, and unhealthy living conditions contribute to health problems.
  • Education and Opportunity: Low attendance rates and lack of resources lead to limited literacy and numeracy skills.
Our Vision:
Navsarjan envisions a future where all adolescents in urban slums can reach their full potential. We believe adolescents are the future of India and deserve quality education, healthcare, and a chance to thrive.
Our Approach:
  • Positive Role Models: We connect adolescents with mentors who offer guidance and support.
  • Improved Healthcare: We advocate for better access to healthcare facilities and promote healthy living practices.
  • Educational Opportunities: We work to make education more accessible and affordable, fostering literacy and numeracy skills.
  • Community Engagement: Adolescents participate in Mahila Mandals (women's groups) to develop leadership skills, social responsibility, and community connections.
Long-Term Strategies:
  • Policy Advocacy: We advocate for policies that support adolescents and their needs.
  • Collaboration: We partner with other organizations to create a comprehensive support network.
  • Community Capacity Building: We empower community members to deliver services and support adolescents.
  • Monitoring and Evaluation: We track progress to ensure our programs are effective.
