IdentityDRF is a not-for-profit organization set up in 1996 to enable socially and economically vulnerable groups to take control of their lives.
In 1996 DRF started with the mission to educate and skill young people to fast track them towards livelihood options. DRF’s Livelihood Advancement Business School, better known as LABS, an innovative program way ahead of its time, trained more than five lakh aspirants and was implemented in more than 120 centers across 20 states in India.
But complex social problems require constant innovation and a change in the way we think in order to make a lasting impact. Today, we work with diverse partners to collectively solve problems in the areas of livelihood, education and health. Our recently launched new programs – GROW, MITRA, PUSHTI, FLHTL and ARITRA – builds on the foundation of collaboration for lasting impact.
In 2016 DRF launched GROW, a new skill training program culled from our two decades of experience in the skilling sector but more importantly, aiming to create a high quality skilling at a low cost. Currently the program is being implemented at scale in more than 70 centers across 18 states.
