Social & Community Services
What are Social Services
Social Services are community-focused initiatives delivered through DharmaCareNet centers to improve health awareness, access, and engagement.
These services are:
- Low-cost or free
- Community-oriented
- Preventive in nature
Not all care should be transactional.
Why Social Services are Important
Many communities face:
- Lack of health awareness
- Delayed diagnosis
- Limited access to basic care
- Social isolation among elders
These issues cannot be solved only through paid services.
Awareness and early action prevent bigger problems.
