About Us :
It is believed that a perfect society is a myth or a utopia. The welfare of the society is the well being of its members. A society that performs well in every sector has to take care of the health and lives of every class and section of the community.

Kerala is known for the welfare measures it has taken for the people of the state and is considered a welfare state. The state has initiated many social security schemes for the poor and the needy as the concept of a welfare state pre-supposes careful planning and effective implementation of welfare services for the weaker sections of the community.
