History

I.C.E. was set up in 1985 with intention of working in the matter of social consciousness of the masses. It lays emphasis on the economically weaker and socially backward sections of the Indian society in order to acquaint them with the importance and significance of education as a weapon of economic, cultural and social change. The organisation encourages citizens on issues against social problems and injustice so as to improve and rectify the quality of human life.

Mission

Due to the rising problems related to alcoholism, drug abuse and health problems in educational institutions, the organisation took up the initiative of creating awareness and building community education, identification, referral, counselling and de-addiction, treatment and rehabilitation of drug addicts and developing medical assistance to the weaker societies. Apart from the ones mentioned, the council also pays attention to welfare, human rights and women's development.
