Where We Work:Four Ashram Shalas in Palghar
We work in four Ashram Shalas across Palghar district: Dabhosa and Vinval in Jawhar taluka, and Kurze and Karhe in Vikramgad taluka.
What is an Ashram Shala?
Ashram Shalas are residential government schools for Adivasi (tribal) students, established and run under Maharashtra's Tribal Development Department. Because students live on campus during term, sessions are planned around both regular classroom timetables and daily hostel routines.
