The sisters visited the remote areas of the villages where there were several mentally challenged persons and conducted awareness classes to the parents to send them to school. On house visits they were given instructions how to deal with such children. Aseer Vidyalaya at Thettiode and Assisi Vidyalaya Chenamkode are the two schools for such children. Physiotherapy classes are conducted in the two schools by fully qualified instructors. During the past years disabled children unable to walk could walk themselves without the help of others through theraphy. Speech therapy also is given to those who can not speak well. Traning in sports, games and cultural programmes are given to the Mentally Challenged children at the two schools. They have made such progress that they could take part in competitions in sports and games and could win prizes.
