About Adhar
Adhar is the first of its kind, community-based institute for intellectually disabled adults. We not only take their lifetime responsibility, but also extend support to their ageing parents.
Adhar is home to 335+ Special Adults (256 male & 79 female) We have two facilities located at Badlapur and Nashik.
Adhar runs on the donations of parents and a small community of donors who care about this cause.
You can do as little as making a one-time donation or help us expand this community.

The parents of the intellectually disabled often have no one to look after in their twilight years. Adhar is building for them an old-age home with 24/7 care of dedicated staff and companionship of other parents with similar life stories.

Securing The Future of Specially Abled Adults
The stigma that surrounds mental health, makes the life of special children & their parents even more difficult. Especially as they age, securing a guardian for them becomes an impossible task. In the year 1990, few such parents came together to find a permanent solution to their common concern “who will take care of them after us?” Adhar, an association of parents of intellectually disabled children, was founded under the leadership of Late Mr M.G.Gore, to address this issue. At present, Adhar has two branches in Maharashtra, located in Badlapur & Nasik and is also building an old-age home for their ageing parents.
Why Adhar
Adhar is not merely a medical facility for Intellectually Disabled adults. It's their lifelong home with a safe, inclusive & stimulating environment.
Our Aim
To make this world a better place for intellectually-challenged adults, by providing lifelong care & protection and ensuring a better treatment for them from society.
Adhar Pillars
7 out of 10 trustees of Adhar are the parents of intellectually-challenged adults, which makes this cause extremely close to our hearts.
