Program Description

Youth Education and Development in India

Description

Udaipur and Jodhpur suffer from a severe lack of resources for the education and personal development of marginalized children who make up a large percentage of the rising generation.

Highlights

- Assist Child Labor Rehabilitation Centers in an attempt to curb child labor by providing children with nutritional support and ways to deter them from taking up hard labor activities again.
- Provide a 24-hour "Child Line" to help children in emergency situations due to abuse, abandonment, neglect, or other at-risk circumstances.
- Teach classes to children of all ages in a variety of subjects (e.g. English, mathematics, Hindi, environmental science, social science, fine arts, music, disaster management, clay-making, carpentry, computers, and globalization) and improve literacy by privately tutoring struggling students and children of families facing migration.
- Raise awareness about the importance of education in rural communities by holding village meetings, organizing village-level education committees, propagating enrollment in schools, holding motivational meetings for parents, and arranging for the construction of basic infrastructure.
- House around 50 orphans, providing them with an education, room, board, and emotional support.
- Offer home-based newborn and young infant care throughout local villages.
