The LILI project (Light to Life) for the disabled, being one of the most vulnerable groups in society, has made steady progress since it was inaugurated in 2009. Undertaken with the coorporation of the Military Intelligence Corps and the Seva Vanitha Unit of the Sri Lanka Army,

the project was initially designed to address Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) issues faced by soldiers with disabilities. Its scope has since widened to include disabled former serviceman and women, as well as disabled civilians.

Three medical camps/clinics were held in Ambepussa, Matale and Naula for “Ranaviru” families where close to 450 persons were able to access numerous general medical and SRH services. Awareness of reproductive cancers was also raised with screening for breast and cervical cancers being carried out as well.
