ANKITHA conceptualizes to address the issues of Mentally Retarded at different levels.
- Family Concern: Mental Retardation in a family set up is one of the linked issues needing solution.

- Humanistic Concern: As a part of civilized society & as a trusted organization in Mental Health Care, ANKITHA imperatively provides platform, opportunity, services and quality associated with these as it were for any other individual in society with or without disability.
- Normalization Concern: ANKITHA is designed & is coming up to function to provide environment as it would be for a normal persona with special areas concerning the disability and for Habilitation & Rehabilitation.
- Therapeutic Concern: ANKITHA residents will be Cared, Habilitated and Rehabilitated under the supervision of Special Educations, Psychologists, Psychiatric-Social Workers through various therapeutic activities & will also receive medical care by Psychiatrist, Physician & Physiotherapist.
