  **EPSA-Nepal (Entire Power in Social Action-Nepal) is a non-governmental organization founded in 2009 and registered with Nepal’s Social Welfare Council in September 2010 by Founder and Director Ms. Sangita Pant** Traditional conservative culture and a male-dominated society, combined with a lack of education, knowledge, awareness, and technology, often result in severe neglect of people with disabilities by their own families and communities. These individuals face double discrimination: first for being poor, and second for being disabled. This harsh reality underscores the importance of our project, which is dedicated to improving the lives of disabled individuals living in poverty and marginalized communities. EPSA Nepal is dedicated to empowering persons with disabilities in Kathmandu by providing them with vocational training, employment, housing, and medical support to allow them to live an independent and dignified life.
