Who We Are

Rooted in Grassroots Action

Amhi Amchya Arogyasathi emerged from the Sampurna Kranti Andolan and Chhatra Yuva Sangharsha Vahini movements. Our founders transitioned from activism to constructive community work in the 1980s, beginning in Gadchiroli's Wadasa and Armori areas.

Since 1984, we have been committed to holistic community health and sustainable livelihoods through our "find-your-own-way" methodology — championing justice and equity for the most marginalized communities across India.
