India Vision Foundation is a 29-year-old nonprofit organization committed to the rehabilitation and reintegration of prison inmates and founded by Dr, Kiran Bedi (the first lady Officer of India Police Service) with the prize money of the Ramon Magsaysay Award in 1994. The foundation has been working tirelessly towards transforming the lives of incarcerated individuals, assisting them in their journey towards successful reintegration into society. Having reached 7,86,808 beneficiaries as of March 2023, the Foundation is presently operational in 40 prisons across 8 states of the country.
By initiating reformation programs for prison inmates and reintegration opportunities to released inmates for the reduction in recidivism also facilitate welfare programs for their children to save them from becoming victims of their parental incarceration.
Through Positive reinforcement, education and values that help them become an asset to Society.
Through Education Projects that comprise of Creche Program and Children of Vulnerable Families Program.
After Serving their terms in Prison, many inmates go through a series of mental health issues. This experience is highly traumatic for many of them. Getting back to "normalcy" is extremely difficult and requires a lot of care and support. At India Vision foundation, we developed the INDIA PRISON PROGRAM that aims to reform inmates (male, youth, female) under its 4S model of reformation.
India Vision Foundation firmly believes in the saying, “Children are the future”. The ECCD Program mainly engages with children of prison inmates and it has been developed to ensure all children under the age of 6 years have quality access to early childhood development, care and pre-primary education. The intention has been to educate and equip these children with tools that will empower them.
The program aims to mainstream & educate the children of incarcerated families after the age of 6 years; ensure their all-round development through various interventions to help them accomplish their academic, social, emotional goals and save them from becoming a victim of their parental incarceration.
It enables the released inmates to embark on a new journey by putting their prison life behind. The aim of this program is to help the inmates recognize their talent and strengthen their self-respect. This reduces the chances of reoffending and in turn, helps them smoothly reintegrate back into society.
The training program aims at sensitizing prison officials about prison reforms. While it is essential to bring physiological and psychological changes to the inmates, it is equally important that the prison officials develop a sense of empathy, learn how to resolve prison problems, learn how to see inmates as work in progress and treat them like a human resource and help create an environment favorable for the emotional, social, physical and psychological development of the inmates.

Despite the goals’ ethos of “leaving no one behind”, recognising people in prison is noticeably absent from the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Indicators relevant to fulfil the goals are proposed while meeting the prison health standards. The political, social and economic challenges alongside the unparalleled COVID-19 pandemic that can resist the realisation of the SDG’s is a crucial part of our assessment.
