Thus, it actively identifies girls who are not in school and encourages them and their families to enrol them in school. It offers incentives in the education fees and provides admission to the boys of the family only if the parents enrol the girl child.
Additionally, Deepalaya began an initiative called the Father and Daughter Alliance, which aims to involve fathers in their daughters' education and encourage them to be actively involved in their daughters' daily work, homework and class assignments.

Sambhav- Differently Abled
State"Children with special needs are overlooked in the sphere of education and policy planning in terms of accessibility and support systems, and even more so when they hail from disadvantaged circumstances. We strongly believe that differently abled children can lead a normal life if they have effective access to services like care and development, education, vocational training, employment opportunities, and the availability of aids and appliances. Sambhav works with children from urban slum communities in Delhi and caters to beneficiaries from 27 adjoining slum communities."
