Himachal Pradesh Voluntary Health Association

We are based up here in New Shimla, right in Sector-2. The office is a regular building in Phase-I. Being a health association, we spend most of our time thinking about how people are doing in the different districts around Himachal. It’s not a hospital, so you won't find doctors in white coats here. Instead, it’s mostly us at our desks coordinating with different groups and volunteers. We handle a lot of health awareness stuff. Sometimes we are out in the field, and other times we are just here in the office filling out reports or planning the next community visit. The weather in Shimla can make things tricky sometimes, especially in winter when it gets really cold outside and the roads get slick. We have a lot of charts and health pamphlets lying around the place. It’s a quiet office for the most part, but we get busy when there’s a big project going on. We’ve been part of the community for a good while. People know where to find us if they have questions about public health programs. It's just a bunch of us trying to help out where we can. We don't have fancy furniture, just what we need to get the job done. It feels more like a home office than a corporate one, which suits us just fine. We just take things one day at a time and try to stay useful.
