Satya Special School works to empower people with special needs and lead the way towards inclusive education and workplace by eradicating the stigma and making them confident and self-reliant through specialised rehabilitation and academic training.

Satya Special School was started in 2003 as a rehabilitation centre offering free services to 20 children with special needs, now has 1029 children under its umbrella. Satya started its journey with a single building, now has ten centres including three Village centres, Mobile Therapy units covering 44 villages, four upcoming Satellite centres, Prosthetics and Orthotics unit and over 100 staff.
