प्रयत्न वादे एकच व्हावे, मानाने मज जगता यावे!
Navjeevan Society for Research & Rehabilitation of the Intellectually Disabled, a registered Society, was established on 5th September 1985 in Ch. Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad), with a primary goal of training and supporting persons with intellectual disabilities.





Ch. Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad) is a city in Maharashtra, 410 km from Mumbai. World famous for its archaeological wonders of Ajanta and Ellora caves, it is considered to be among the fastest growing cities in Asia. Of its population of 16,87,000, an alarming 2% live with intellectual disabilities — yet the number of institutions working for them is negligible.
Founded by Mrs. Nalini Shah with the encouragement of Dr. Kumbhakarna, Dr. Ambadas Ambulgekar (both paediatricians) and Dr. Vinay Barhale (psychiatrist), Navjeevan began with 18 children in a rented place. Today there are 150 students under the roof of Navjeevan.
