These undergraduate students are studying at Stella Maris College, Nungambakkam. Niraivagam has undertaken an initiative to take care of the displaced students affected by ethnic violence, for their mental well-being by helping them to overcome grief and trauma and to grow up with positivity and resilience. This rejuvenating session was conducted by Fr. Ravi SDB, Asst. Director of Niraivagam and assisted by Mrs. Virgin Vinodini, Counsellor.
