Sagar Tara began as an extension of SHM’s work at Uttan Pali since 1975. In 1987 a small structure was constructed on a beautiful hill top to provide medical and other developmental activities for the fisherfolk. Gradually, as the interaction between the sisters and the people increased, the structure was rebuilt into a house so the sisters could live among the people.

​

Sagar Tara caters to the needs of the community through the dispensary and maternity ward, family visits, tuition classes for children, kindergarten, sponsorship for poor students, adult literacy classes, health camps, skills-based training and programs for the differently challenged. The response from the people, especially women, is very encouraging. They have become aware of their rights and how to avail of them.
