Janakalyan Welfare Society aims to foster a fair society by empowering communities and promoting values through education and organisation. Its activi Read moreties focus on providing relief and dignity to individuals, particularly those facing economic hardship. Operating primarily in tribal and fisherfolk villages of Rampachodavaram, Maredumilli, and Katrenikona Mandal in East Godavari District, the organization has achieved significant milestones in the past nine years. These include establishing women's groups and savings unions, conducting environmental awareness camps, and addressing health and sanitation issues prevalent in these remote areas. Efforts such as anti-addiction campaigns have helped combat social vices while fostering leadership and problem-solving skills within the communities. As a result of its initiatives, the Janakalyan Welfare Society has catalyzed a positive transformation among the marginalized and privileged alike. Communities have recognized the importance of collective action for their welfare, leading to a decline in social problems like alcoholism and gambling. Moreover, there has been a notable emergence of local leadership, particularly among women, who have become more actively involved in addressing community challenges. Through its work, the organization has not only raised awareness but also empowered individuals to take charge of their development, fostering a sense of responsibility and resilience within these underserved communities.

    The CHAHA Project, initiated by an alliance with JKWS, aims to provide comprehensive support to children living with HIV/AIDS (CLHIV/CAA) aged 0-18 years in Visakhapatnam District.

Notable outcomes include increased ART drug adherence, improved health among young CLHIV/CAA, access to government benefits, and positive community engagement.
