A small seed sown on 17th March 1977 Ugadi, Telugu New Year Day has grown and developed into a tall tree with several service units and institutions in Secunderabad, Tandur, Kadapa and Guntur. 37 years of dedicated service, commitment and belief that the persons with disability are victims of fate, but they should not be victims of neglect, underlie this unparalled growth.
We are serving the persons of all ages (”womb-to-tomb”) with disability. SARS is not only a reservoir for delivering service (running 29 Service Units) but excellent centers for human resource dervelopment in various sectors of disability. As of this day, total 31 training courses are conducted under the ambit of SARS.
Free Medical and Disability Detection Camps at School and Community (Rural and Urban) levels, Infant Screening and Disability Awareness Camps are some of the popular and reputed programs of SARS.

.Professional Diploma in Clinical Psychology
(1 year duration)The Professional Diploma was started in the year 2013 to meet the growing demands for trained professionals in mental health area. Although in the last five years number of centers offering M.Phil Clinical Psychology training and the number of students undergoing the professional training in clinical psychology have increased by many folds the available manpower is still no match to the number required.

5. Psy.D. (Clinical Psychology)
(Duration - 4-yr. for direct, and 2-yr. for lateral entry) The Psy.D (Doctorate in Clinical Psychology) was started in the year 2013. The field of psychology is so broad that those working towards a professional degree have several options, and choosing between Ph.D (Research Doctorate) and Psy.D. (Clinical Doctorate) degree is one such option. Until recently the Ph.D. degree is commonly pursued among the two choices, as Ph.D.is the oldest doctorate available. But, in the recent years the Psy.D. degree has seen a phenomenal rise in popularity, particularly after the Vail Conference of 1973, where Psy.D. was officially recognized as a professional doctorate, and American Psychological Association endorsing this recognition.The Ph.D is a more traditional, research-based professional degree, while the purpose of the Psy.D. is seen as placing greater focus on preparing the individual for professional practice, with less research training built into the curriculum. With this in mind, the decision to work towards either degree depends on what the individual plans on doing with his or her professional life. For a career in academia the Ph.D. is seen as more advantageous because of the research-based emphasis. However, if one plans on entering a career centered on applied, clinical practice, the Psy.D. is the choice.
6. Ph.D.
The Department enrolls candidates who wish to pursue their training for Ph.D degree in any specialized areas of Clinical Psychology or Forensic or Investigative psychology. The candidates already completed M.Phil Clinical Psychology from any recognized centres or Masters in Psychology are eligible to register.
