VOC has started the Foster Family Project, which has made possible the de-institutionalization process. Foster family is a family which provides family like environment to children who live with other family in a support of organization. This is an alternative way to reintegrate children in a family those who don't have their own family and are not ready to settle independently in the community. The main aim of foster family project is to develop children in family environment where they can learn the role of each member in the family while living in the society.
VOC has piloted an innovative foster care approach at community level, something very new in Nepal. Hence, VOC is working hard in coordination with local authority towards developing foster care law & environment in Nepal by assessing the children & family for the foster care and lobbying with concerned stakeholders for formulating foster care policies in Nepal.
