It emerged from direct, visceral experience of what exclusion does to a human being \u2014 and from a personal refusal to accept that exclusion as inevitable.<\/p>\n Growing up in Prakasam District, Suravarapu Anjaneyulu Reddy was surrounded by the reality that would shape his life’s work. He witnessed first-hand the neglect and exploitation of individuals with disabilities in his village \u2014 hearing-impaired children unable to communicate, intellectually disabled young people shunted to the margins of community life, families carrying their disabled children as a secret shame rather than a celebrated member.<\/p>\n What he felt in those moments was not pity. It was outrage at the injustice \u2014 and clarity about what needed to be done<\/p>\n Suravarapu Anjaneyulu Reddy pursued a Special Bachelor of Education (Special B.Ed.) degree with a focus on special education \u2014 giving him both the theoretical foundation and the practical methodology to work effectively with children with intellectual and sensory disabilities.<\/p>\n He then spent several formative years working at two of Andhra Pradesh’s most respected special education institutions:<\/p>\n When Suravarapu Anjaneyulu Reddy returned to Prakasam District, he returned with more than a qualification. He returned with the knowledge that what he had seen in Kakinada and Ongole could and should exist in his own district \u2014 and that he would build it if nobody else would.<\/p>\n In 1999, he founded SKR. He started with no building, no recurring funding, and no institutional support. He started with 10 children \u2014 and the absolute conviction that every one of them deserved to be there.<\/p>\n Twenty-five years later, those 10 children have become 10,000 annual beneficiaries. That conviction has become an organisation. And Suravarapu Anjaneyulu Reddy remains, as Secretary and Chief Functionary of SKRPWS, the driving force behind its continued growth and its refusal to compromise on its founding purpose.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”vcet-table” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”16px” header_2_font=”Roboto Condensed|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#3a6f45″ header_2_font_size=”35px” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Empowering individuals with intellectual disabilitiesSuravaru Anjaneyulu Reddy FOUNDERA Visionary Leader with a Compassionate Heart Suravarapu Anjaneyulu Reddy’s commitment to disability welfare did not emerge from a seminar or a policy document.
