Founded in 2012, PARI Foundation—an acronym for Psychological Assistance and Rehabilitation for Individuals—was conceived by Dr. Sona Kaushal, a visionary pathologist and biochemist.
Her journey began in 2008 while practicing in a hospital, where she observed an unsettling phenomenon: patients, despite receiving adequate medical care, often left the hospital burdened with anxiety, distress, and despair. Through conversations with them, she uncovered that their stress extended far beyond the physical realm, encompassing fears about the implications of their illnesses—treatment costs, job security, family welfare, and long-term consequences.
Pari Foundation proudly extends its services across Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh, focusing on creating stress-free, resilient communities. Through our initiatives, we aim to empower individuals with knowledge and tools to manage stress, nurture mental well-being, and build a brighter, healthier future for all. Our efforts are rooted in reaching even the most underserved regions of these states, ensuring no one is left behind.

Mental illness continues to be a scar on humanity, alienating countless individuals from mainstream society. The stigma surrounding mental health conditions exacerbates their struggles, often leaving them isolated and marginalized. Together with our partners and supporters, we strive to combat this stigma and heal the wounds of mental illness.
Our efforts align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly the goals of Good Health and Well-being and No Poverty, with the aim of achieving them by 2030. Prevention is within reach through awareness, education, and knowledge dissemination. At the heart of our approach lies psycho-education and the promotion of emotional resilience, especially among children and youth, who are the foundation of a happier and healthier society.
We are committed to developing sustainable, scalable, replicable, and cost-effective models for stress and mental health awareness. Our mission is to catalyze a societal transformation, reshaping mindsets around stress, its risks, and its management. By sharing knowledge and fostering education, we seek to demystify stress and empower individuals to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
Our vision is a resilient, harmonious society where children are nurtured in a supportive, stress-free environment by parents who themselves are free from the burdens of stress. We envision a world where every individual lives a life of dignity, fulfillment, and happiness—a world driven by collective well-being and resilience.
