Current Program

Children referred from the DIC reside at the Socialization Centre for one year, where they prepare for sustainable reintegration into their families and communities. The Socialization Centre offers psychosocial support, life skills training, educational classes, awareness and recreational activities, and family visits, all as part of the socialization process. The children regularly meet with their parents and guardians to strengthen familial relationships. The center prepares the children for reintegration based on individualized plans, which may include educational and vocational training, to ensure their successful transition into family and community life.

The rescued children, who are street-connected, sexually abused, or at risk, stay at the Drop-In Centre (DIC) for a maximum of three months to facilitate their socialization process. Following their rescue, the DIC provides essential services, including psychosocial support, first aid, comprehensive medical treatment, accommodation, nutrition, clothing, and other necessary care tailored to individual needs. Key interventions at the DIC encompass family identification and visits, behavior modification, and the development of personalized action plans for each child. Additionally, the DIC conducts educational support, awareness sessions, recreational activities, outdoor programs, and sports initiatives through child clubs to promote the overall well-being and development of the children.

Voice of Children facilitates capacity-building initiatives for families with children who are separated and living away from home, preparing them for reintegration from the Drop-in Centre and Socialization Centre. Social Workers identify families with the support of the children and assess their situations using participatory methods. Following the assessment, families develop action plans to improve in areas such as health, education, family relationships, legal matters, and economic development.

Voice of Children administers the Self-Help Family Program, promoting the Self-Help Approach to empower families in creating child-friendly environments. This program enhances the health, education, psychological well-being, and economic status of families in vulnerable communities. It also focuses on leadership development, advocacy, and lobbying for the rights of women and children, while promoting economic opportunities.
