TLM Chhattisgarh Vocational Training Centre

ABOUT THE VOCATIONAL TRAINING CENTRE

TLM Champa Vocational Training Centre was established in the year 1998.

Rev. P. A. Panner, an American Mennonite missionary working in Champa, started an asylum for leprosy patients who begged for a living, in 1902. Eventually, the asylum was converted into a hospital-cum-home. The Mission to Lepers (now, The Leprosy Mission Trust India) took over its management in 1903.

The Leprosy Mission Trust India started a vocational training centre (VTC) in 1998 to provide vocational training to young boys and girls undergoing treatment and whose parents/siblings were affected by leprosy.
