The “ Mission” of the Jana Vikas Samstha (JVS) To make a visible difference in the quality of life of rural people through better health, education, skills building and increased income. The JVS has developed an “Integrated, Sustainable Village Development” (ISVD) model. Water Management, Income Enhancement, Rural Health, Family Life Education, and Alternate Energy are its programs. Each program is supported by a professional Program Leader and field staff. The Program Leaders regularly gain knowledge pertaining to their program by participating in seminars, visiting other NGOs, and browsing the web to bring in appropriate technology to the villages. They work on the capacity building of the field staff and also monitor and evaluate the projects closely with the filed staff. All projects are introduced in the villages only after analyzing the sustainability aspect of each project. Technically sound yet low maintenance village infrastructure is promoted. Village Level Institutions (Self-help Groups SHGs) are established in the villages. SHG members are elected by the community. While the JVS implements its programs, it also empowers the SHG members to carry out different activities to ensure sustainable development even after the JVS withdraws from a village. Community Centers are established in the villages which provide facilities for training, demonstration, information, and services. These centers also provide platform for other NGOs, government and volunteers. Raising community awareness is crucial to our initiatives. We work closely with the Panchayaths and focus on strengthening government linkages. The JVS has taken-up the challenge to develop an extremely conservative society, with its nonchalant attitude towards development.
