GOALS/REACH

There has been a significant increase in the call volumes and turnout at our walk in clinics over the last several years. Call volumes have doubled from 2016 to 2017 and tripled in 2018 to 2023. This clearly reflects that cases of depression, abuse and relationship problems are on the rise in the community and there is a need for greater intervention. As a response, Sanjeevani aims to expand its reach this year in 2024 and empower more and more victims to lead better lives.
In person services are currently available in the Chicago area.

We are trained in providing you with the support you need to deal with difficult situations in life. Your personal information is strictly confidential.
