The Anchorage

Contributed by Ridhi D'Cruz

One of the nicest environments I've worked in that deals with differently-abled people. Probably what strikes you the most is how warm and caring all the people who work there are. It's a tight-knit group where everyone gets generous portions of hugs and advice. Dealing with people who are mentally challenged with occupational therapy The Anchorage seeks to infuse purpose and pride by giving it's members work like assembling switches, packaging hospitality items and making beaded jewellery. The workplace comes alive with its festive afternoon Hindi Music sessions and everyone can be seen humming along as they go about their tasks.

Yoga, home skills, Music are some other activities that help in a holistic development.
