SUPPORT, Society for Undertaking Poor People's Onus for Rehabilitation, is a young go-getting, no-nonsense voluntary organization fighting on the streets to prevent Drug Abuse and AIDS. It began its work in 1985, creating awareness on drug abuse and AIDS with children of the higher strata of society.

In 1989, SUPPORT moved its focus to the most vulnerable of our children, those who live on the streets, and a project was initiated at Victoria Terminus Station covering 300 street addicts.

From 1993, SUPPORT has expanded its activities to Grant Road, Kamathipura, Dadar, Matunga and Mahim areas covering a wider range of street population including sex workers and eunuchs. A rehabilitation center has been opened for child addicts below 16.

Working in the field of Drug Abuse and HIV/AIDS prevention amongst street children, homeless youth and pavement families. Residential facilities. Providing school as well as in-house education and vocational training.
