| Education: Nurturing Potential, Empowering Futures |
|
At NYSASDRI, education is not just a service it’s a commitment to social justice and human dignity. From the deeply remote tribal belts of Rayagada to the aspiring youth of central Odisha, we have created pathways for learning that are rooted in need, equity, and purpose. On one end, we nurture tribal girls who have been historically left behind, providing them with residential schooling, safety, and opportunity. On the other, we empower future professionals in journalism and social work those who will become changemakers, storytellers, and advocates for the voiceless. This dual approach reflects our core belief: education must reach both the margins and the mainstream if we are to build a truly inclusive and compassionate society.

| NYSASDRI Educational Complex for Tribal Girls at Rayagada district of Odisha |
In the remote and underserved district of Rayagada, where over 57% of the population belongs to tribal communities and female literacy remains critically low, NYSASDRI initiated a bold step toward educational equity. Since 1996, the NYSASDRI Educational Complex for Tribal Girls in Hukumtola village has provided residential schooling to tribal girls who might otherwise be denied the opportunity to learn.
Starting with just 50 girls from classes I to V, today the school supports 189 students from classes I to VI, each receiving not only education but also care, dignity, and safety. The school combats the root causes of illiteracy, such as migration, poverty, and social stigma against girls' education, by offering:
- A secure residential hostel with clean dormitories, 24-hour electricity and water, sanitation, and a common space for recreation and indoor games.
- Nutritious meals, school uniforms, books, hygiene kits, and monthly supplies to ensure that no basic need is unmet.
- Health & hygiene care including regular medical check-ups, monthly sanitary pad distribution, and menstrual hygiene tracking.
- Academic support through incentives, free tuition, and extra classes.
- Cultural and holistic development via festivals, competitions, sports, vocational skills like art and craft, and structured daily routines with prayers, meditation, and reflection.
- Parental engagement through monthly parent-teacher meetings, strengthening the home-school connection.
