In 1992, the initiative began with 13 patients. Today, it unites, under the name of Shanti Sewa Griha, a multitude of institutions that perform social work for the people on the margins of Nepalese society: poor people, lepers, and people with disabilities. Over time, workshops, a clinic, a soup kitchen, a kindergarten, and a school inspired by Waldorf education have been created. Now, for the first time, a cooperation between the current doctor of the Shanti Rehabilitation Center and the school has been established. The dedicated doctor was able to examine all the children. Medical education and care are particularly important for these children, who mainly come from very poor families. The cooperation with the doctor is therefore a perfect complement to the regular examinations by a dentist. She also explains dental hygiene to the children - together with Saru, a young woman who came to the Shanti family as a child and later trained as a dental hygienist.
