The Don Bosco Community
established Navajeevan in 1989,at the invitation
of the Municipal Corporation of
Vijayawada,
to rescue and rehabilitate
Street Children.
Those children, who cannot find their homes for
various reasons, are encouraged to choose from
possibilities of rehabilitation-regular
education/ training in various trades and other
life-coping skills which would inculcate in them
self esteem and self confidence to be self
reliant. These deprived children are thus
integrated into society’s main-stream as
responsible citizens.
Navajeevan
received the
National Award For Child Welfare –1996
.In 1997,he Government of Andhra Pradesh
recognized Navajeevan Bala Bhavan as a
Fit Institution.
Recognising the success of its work for the
cause of street children, Navajeevan was invited
in1997 by the Municipal Corporation to start
center for the working children at Autonagar
,the Industrial Estate with in the city Limits. |
