“I have been fortunate enough to volunteer at NADA INDIA FOUNDATION and this experience really stood out as one of the best! The variety of the projects was a real plus point for me as I got to know different issues in area of health among variety of groups. Working out with Mr.Aflilaash at different de-addiction centers and with Mr.DevenderJoti at DRUG USE & HOMELESS:PEER COUNSELLOR facilitating GROUP,which was wonderful. What I most appreciated was how friendly and open the people were during the sessions.

Also,learning research methodology at YOUNG INDIA NETWORK FOR GOOD HEALTH on HEALTH NEEDS was a great experience.Finally, I can say I got the practical exposure of what I’ve learned from textbooks. Preparing questionnaire and taking surveys was challenging yet successful under guidance of Mr.SuneelVatsyayan, a special mention has to go to him ,he was so patient and welcoming. And most importantly, a great mentor!”
