Adoption

Snehaniketan foundling home is the licensed agency for adoption, which is one of the remarkable activities of Dinasevanasabha. The Foundling home has been started in the year 1973 and got the license from the Government for adoption services both in country and inter-country in the year 1978 with the aim of giving care and protection to the abandoned and relinquished infants, below the age of five. We get the children from un-wed mothers from hospitals, road, ‘AMMATHOTTIL’ etc.

‘Adoption’ is not finding children for families but, finding families for children. The Congregation runs a separate registered home named “St. Angela Home for the Women in Distress” for the un-wed mothers. The home offers pre-natal and post natal care, periodical medical check-up and counseling services to the inmates.

Adoption: Inter country – 376
               In country – 210
              Total – 586
