Manorathi is a Section 8 Non-profit company. Manorathi was started by a group of people who have personal experience of living or caring for mental health conditions. We believe that mental needs are inter linked with all other needs of a person. We want to widen the scope and reach of mental health care, by including physical health care, work, relationships, social support in its purview.
About Us
Our Target Groups

People with mental health conditions
Mental health services currently provided by the government and the private sector are in many cases are insufficient to meet the growing emotional and social needs of people with severe mental illness. Needs for meaningful engagement, work, personal and social relationships remain unfulfilled by the mental health care system.

Senior Citizens
Aging population, especially in the urban areas, have to deal with loneliness due to
lack of support networks and absence of meaningful engagement with the environment, further contributing to their mental and physical comorbidities. All of which impact their mental health, as is evident by a worldwide increase in late life depression in people above the age of 60. Sadly, in the cities this demographic is provided with very few structural support programmes.
