Asha Bhavan Vagamon

Good News Asha Bhavan is a rehabilitation centre for mentally challenged persons who are rejected by their families and relatives. Good News Asha Bhavan is owned and operated by St. Paul Province of Heralds of Good News. Heralds of Good News is a Missionary Society of Priests, founded in Andhra Pradesh, India in 1984 by Very Rev. Fr. Jose Kaimlett. Heralds of Good News priests are engaged in seminary formation, parish pastoral works, running destitute homes, orphanages, spiritual retreat ministry, etc.

Recognizing the desperate and pathetic situation of the mentally challenged people around, the provincial administration after due prayer and consultation ventured into this ministry, though in a humble way. Since 2010 we have been running this centre in a beautiful location at Vagamon. Vagamon provides very good atmosphere for the mentally challenged. Since the facilities have been limited we have been able to admit only a small number of patients. We have a group of personnel that support this mission by providing the inmates adequate and effective treatment.

Good News Asha Bhavan is registered under the Board of control for Orphanages and other charitable homes, Government of Kerala (Reg No: 1756/2011).
