The SOS Children's Village Jorpati was built for physically and mentally handicapped children. This project is carried out in co-operation with the Nepal Disabled and Blind Association. Near the SOS Children's Village, there is an organization called Kaghenda New Life Centre. They are specialists in the treatment of the handicapped. The children from the SOS Children's Village are treated there as well. Jorpati is located on the outskirts of the capital, Kathmandu, not far from the SOS Children's Village Sanothimi.
The SOS Children's Village Jorpati consists of four family houses, an office and a therapy room with a small pool. The houses were specially designed to meet the requirements of the physically handicapped. They were built next to each other around a central courtyard. The schools and training facilities of Kaghenda New Life Centre are next door to the SOS Children's Village. Special classes for mentally handicapped children are held at the SOS Children's Village. Some of the older boys from the SOS Children's Village live at the SOS Youth House.
