Shafa Home was founded in November of 1999, by a group of recovering addicts headed by Mr. Ranjan Dhar. SHAFA is India’s largest rehabilitation centre which houses more than 150 residents, at any given time in its three centers in northern India.
SHAFA is the pioneer to use “Therapeutic Community” Model as a treatment modality for drug/ alcohol dependence. SHAFA is one of the few Centers in India which does not use any kind of mood altering substance for drug abuse treatment. Shafa Home believes in empowering residents. This is done through exercising, self-expression, volunteering, challenging the mind, comradely community work, meditating, and becoming in-tune with spiritual experience and expression.
SHAFA is the only treatment centre to use Yoga, Meditation and Naturopathy as a treatment modality. Dance and Theatre are used as tools to teach art and life skills.
SHAFA emphasizes on the role of Family Support in treatment and after care, by organizing bi-monthly family counseling meetings, individual counseling and group counseling.
SHAFA Home is staffed by well trained recovering addicts, professional counselors, psychologists, clinical psychologists, doctors and psychiatric doctors. At this beautiful facility, the power of healing is shown and experienced by the staff and residents.
