Sanjana, 22-year-old girl with Downs Syndrome. She joined pre-vocational training at Seva-in-Action in the year 2018. Her communication & socialization skills were very less when she joined. She used to sit alone, doesn’t like to do any activities. We gave many exposures individually activities & observed that she likes music & dance. So, we planned activities which she likes. We gave some activities like passing message, talk with mic. Slowly she started to involve with others & making friends.

Her talent exposed by these training & participated in different cultural programs and competitions like Fashion show in 2019 at Krishanaiah Chetty Jewelers auditorium. Performed in various dance program with group in many companies. Sanjana started doing her own work & her choice. Initially she used to talk few words, later she began to sing her favorite songs with lyrics. Sanjana’s parents and sisters were happy to see her drastic changes during in her journey with SiA.
