Healthcare is also a core part of all our educational programs. Across all CH Centres, children receive nutritious meals and healthy snacks that help them stay nourished, energized and ready to learn.

Regular health camps provide essential preventive care, including general health, dental and eye check-ups, as well as vaccinations where required. Children also receive medicines and nutritional supplements based on their individual needs, while first-aid kits are regularly replenished to ensure timely care when it matters most.

CH also promotes long-term health and wellbeing by helping children build healthy habits and make informed choices. Health and hygiene sessions encourage good everyday practices, while regular yoga, meditation and sports activities support physical fitness, resilience and confidence. Where needed, children also have access to professional mental health support, ensuring that their emotional wellbeing is nurtured alongside their physical health and development.

Project Patang is a mental health initiative started at the CHAHAK centre, that aims to create safe, supportive spaces where children can express themselves, understand their emotions, and develop healthy ways of coping with life’s challenges.

Our councilor Ms Aditi Singh, through awareness, age-appropriate mental health education, emotional support, and meaningful conversations, has taken Project Patang to reduce stigma around mental health and encourage children to seek help when they need it. CH believes that every child deserves the freedom to grow with confidence, resilience, and hope—just like a patang soaring freely in the sky.

Every year, free cancer screening and health check-up camps are organised at both CHAHAK Centres in collaboration with the Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute & Research Centre. These camps are open to the entire community, providing people with access to essential screening and early detection services.

Individuals found to have any cancer-related condition during the screening are supported with free treatment at the Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute & Research Centre, ensuring that those in need can access timely diagnosis, care, and treatment without financial barriers.

In addition to the annual cancer screening camp, regular open health camps are organised for community members. These camps provide essential preventive healthcare services, including blood pressure and blood sugar level checks, dental check-ups, and ECG screenings. The initiative enables community members to monitor their health regularly and seek timely medical advice when required.

CHI Programs monitored and evaluated by CH

The partnership with VisionSpring Foundation enabled eye screenings for 4,500 students and teachers, also providing eye glasses to those who required it. By helping children see better today, we are helping children learn better.

CHI operates a Mobile Medical Unit (MMU) in partnership with Light of Life Trust (LoLT).

Through regular visits, the MMU delivers primary healthcare directly at people’s doorsteps: offering consultations, treatment, and hope, often at little to no cost. In addition, the team conducts health camps and awareness sessions that empower communities with knowledge about preventive care and healthier living.

Mental health and well-being

• CHI’s centers serving vulnerable children engage part-time psychologists to provide regular mental health awareness sessions and individual counselling.
• In 2025–26, CHI partnered with Mpower, an initiative of the Aditya Birla Education
  Trust, to implement a Mental Health Literacy Program for teachers and a Student
  Outreach Program for Grades 5–8 at the CHI-Palghar center. Following the success of the partnership, Mpower will extend these programs across all CHI centers in the forthcoming academic year.
• Music, dance, yoga, sports, and meditation are integrated into center activities to
  promote mental wellbeing.
• Arts-based activities, supported by Amar Nath Sehgal Pvt. Collection, strengthen social-emotional learning, while awareness sessions with partners such as TribesforGOOD help address mental health-related stigma.

Each visit is led by a dedicated team comprising of a doctor, nurse, and a medical social worker

"Dekhna Hai Mujhe” (“I Want to See!”), a flagship initiative of Children’s Hope India in partnership with KK Eye Institute under the Sight for the Sightless program, is transforming pediatric eye health in Pune by serving vulnerable children in orphanages, destitute homes, and slum communities. Through early eye screenings and access to treatment, the initiative helps children overcome preventable vision challenges so they can see, learn, and thrive with confidence.
