The center welcomed them warmly, introducing them to a community of about 45 individuals, ranging in age from 21 to 56 years.
The team from CY Pune Chakan quickly recognized that the health and happiness of these individuals were paramount. Their days began with nature walks, exercise, and gym sessions to maintain fitness and health.

Monthly outings for dining or shopping added to their sense of fulfillment and pride in their community.
