At AKASA's Safe Home in Anuradhapura, Kamalawathi shares her journey in her own words 🎥

AKASA supports women with disabilities and their families through a network of self-help groups. For the women who call this Safe Home theirs, it isn't a stopover, it's a permanent home 🏡

Watch their story of rebuilding through community, dignity, and the quiet, steady work of growing chrysanthemums and fruit that has become both their livelihood and healing 🌸🌱
