Damien Vocational Training Centre was established in the year 1974, by Late Fr. Lawrence J Hunt, S.J. in the campus of De Brito House, Gomoh, a unit of Damien Social Welfare Centre (DSWC), Dhanbad. It was taken further by Fr. Joe Lacey SJ. At that time it was mainly for the children of leprosy patients teaching them wielding, carpentry, fitter, motor mechanic-driving, agriculture, plumbing, mason, tailoring, embroidery, and cane chairs and tables making. It helped many of our boys and girls to become bread winner in their family. Unfortunately as the time passed by because of various reasons the center started deteriorating and finally in 2009 this center had to be closed down. However, Fr. A Vijay Bhat, the Director of DSWC (1986-1995), in view of shifting Damien Vocational Training Centre (DVTC) from Gomoh to Dhanbad, had bought a piece of land at Kaladih close to Nirmala General & Leprosy Hospital, Govindpur.
Fr. Bipin Pani, in view of restarting the Training Centre, had restarted tailoring classes at Baramasia and Dhanbad. The year of Golden Jubilee of DSWC was particularly blessed, when Manos Undias agreed to fund the ground floor of the training center. Now DVTC has a spacious workshop, which is well equipped. Students are prepared under the supervision of qualified instructors to appear in the All India Trade Test conducted by the National Council for Vocational Training, Ministry of Labour, Employment & Training, Government of India.
Philosophy: A commitment to apply innovative concepts to help our students and clients meet their needs and lessen their poverty in an accountable and efficient manner.
