Recovery Facilitation Project (RFP) is a daycare project started in 2018 to facilitate
the recovery of adults with severe and chronic mental illness and reintegrate them within the community. The Department of Social Justice, Govt. of Kerala funds it. The age group between 18 - 60 are eligible beneficiaries of the RFP. Persons using tobacco and occasional alcohol use will be included in the service.
