WIDENING OF HORIZONS

In its quest to explore boundaries, one of our SHAFA staff member Rupin visited TC program of SELF Enhancement for Life Foundation organization in Philippines which is dedicated to the treatment and rehabilitation of individuals suffering from substance abuse and other Attitude Disorders.

It was a step ahead for knowing the various treatment modalities been followed by South Asian countries, so that a holistic framework can be set to promote the TC culture. He experienced the TC program while on carpet, to understand the treatment modality which this organization follows. 

He went through all treatment stages from a junior member to a staff member, so that a differentiation of procedures adopted could be observed. He came back to SHAFA with a new vibrant outlook which will not only enhance the present standards, but will also add new dimensions to TC approach.

I CANT DO IT……….................................... .............................WE CAN

26^th June is celebrated world wide as International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking.

The day was also celebrated in different facilities of Shafa Home, all over northern India, with great fanfare and joy. The best part of our celebration was that every arrangement related to this event, right from conceptualizing, planning, arranging, implementation and the final presentation was done exclusively by our residents. This was a great achievement. They left no stone unturned to make this event memorable for everyone who participated. For them it was like a new challenge to get back into the mainstream of the society; and to show their capabilities and skills. Their precision and quality of work can be judged by seeing the photographs enclosed.

On this occasion few recovering alcoholics and addicts shared their past experiences and chalked out a road to recovery for others to follow.

The evening ended with a colorful dance drama depicting the life cycle of an addict.
