Adaikalam - a therapeutic community in a homely environment

Adaikalam became the new Transit Home in 2001, providing 24,000 square feet of fully equipped, comfortable living space for those who until recently had less than nothing to call their own. Designed in two blocks, residential and therapeutic, the new building has many useful facilities, such as:

10 airy dormitories
Consulting rooms
Sick bays
An auditorium
A vocational training unit
A dining hall
A recreational therapy unit

The Banyan currently houses over 380 residents at Adaikalam and The Long Stay Home in Otteri and employs around 90 members of staff, including trained social workers, doctors, psychiatrists, nursing aides, and other categories of staff that contribute to the smooth running at the centre.
