About Aruna Chetana
Aruna Chetana Special School, a project of Hindu Seva Pratishthana, has been transforming the lives of children with special needs and multiple disabilities since its establishment in 1987. For nearly four decades, the institution has remained steadfast in its mission of nurturing every child's potential through holistic education, therapeutic support, and vocational empowerment. Today, Aruna Chetana serves over 250 children, providing them with comprehensive care in a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment.
At Aruna Chetana, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and live with dignity. Our objective is to provide integrated educational, developmental, and therapeutic services under one roof, enabling children with special needs to become as independent and self-reliant as possible while offering meaningful support to their families.
Over the years, the institution has worked with children experiencing a wide spectrum of disabilities, including cerebral palsy, hearing impairment, intellectual disabilities, learning disabilities, physical disabilities, and visual impairment. Every child is embraced with compassion, respect, and unwavering commitment. We regard them as precious gifts of God and strive to help each one realise their unique abilities and potential.
Recognising that true empowerment extends beyond education, Aruna Chetana established a dedicated Vocational Training Centre to equip young adults with practical skills and prepare them for meaningful employment. This initiative has enabled more than 600 students to secure jobs in garment industries, offices (including data entry and clerical roles), dairies, horticulture, and other sectors, empowering them to lead lives of dignity and financial independence.
Children receive education in the Kannada medium up to the fifth standard. Those who demonstrate the required academic readiness are successfully integrated into mainstream schools, promoting inclusive education and social integration. To date, 65–70 students have transitioned into regular schools, reflecting the institution's commitment to creating opportunities beyond the special education system.
The strength of Aruna Chetana lies in its team of dedicated special educators and therapists who approach every child with patience, empathy, and individualised care. Recognising that parents are vital partners in a child's development, the institution also provides continuous guidance, counselling, and training to families, empowering them with the knowledge and confidence to support their children's growth and development at home.
At Aruna Chetana, our vision goes beyond education—we aspire to build confident, capable, and self-reliant individuals who can participate meaningfully in society and live fulfilling lives with dignity and purpose.
