SPYM is a non-profit organisation with a countrywide network. SPYM was founded by Dr. Zeenat Naquatee and Dr. Rajesh Kumar in 1986, from the hostel of Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. SPYM works in the area of community mobilization, health care and socio-economic development for the urban poor, with a special focus on homeless people and populations vulnerable to substance use disorder and children in difficult circumstances for the last three decades.
Interventions
SPYM runs a homeless shelter for homeless people across Delhi, where essential services are provided to shelter users, like food, toilets, etc. SPYM runs Drop-in centres that cater to the needs of children vulnerable and dependent on drugs. This centre has been set up in Delhi, which had a large concentration of street children, many of whom are rag-pickers. Also, SPYM is managing Targeted Intervention Sites for HIV/AIDS prevention among Injecting Drug Users and long-distance truck drivers.
