About Us
OMRAH is a non-profit making socio developmental organization, founded by a group of Health Professionals way back in 1986. The organization is registered under the Society Registration Act and under section 80G of the Income Tax Act 1961 and 12A.
Conceived as a research and service organization, it has gradually shaped itself as a responsive institution to the needs of outreach and underserved communities living in slums and rural pockets, with programs addressing the rights of children, adolescents, and women. As a responsive institution, OMRAH has been acting upon the needs of the communities it serves. The main focus has been on health as the right of the community.
