Sparsh: Touch and Transform

‘Sparsh: Touch and Transform’ program has launched in the month of May 2024 for the rehabilitation of children in crisis in the outskirts of Delhi. Since it is customary for children to not leave their village, the majority of the children here do not attend conventional school, which is located outside of it. However, over fifty kids regularly attend the non-formal education institution. Their parents work in their typical, unwholesome jobs and come from extremely low socioeconomic backgrounds. Here, the kids are frequently left to fend for themselves after being abandoned, neglected, and pushed into the same maze. At summary, the children’s overall development is at jeopardy.

The program’s goal is to guarantee the kids’ general well-being by implementing health and education programs. It will be successfully accomplished through health camps, WASH sessions, non-formal education, and cultural and athletic events.

In order to alter and rehabilitate the unreached, unaccepted, and untouched members of society – children in particular – it is essential to work with them and concentrate on their education and health. We could make a big difference in the lives of the kids and the community with the sisters’ local knowledge and RUCHA’s healthcare experience.

In this regard, we encourage parents and kids to pursue normal education and offered counselling. Through the initiative, 50 youngsters are being helped. It serves as a non-formal education centre for children who do not attend school and as a tuition centre for those who do. VIDA is supporting the project, which is being carried out in partnership with the Adorers Sisters (AACC), located in Najafgarh, Delhi.

To make sure the regularity of the children attending the child development center and to extend more support, we have added an income generation program, cutting and tailoring classes, to enhance the ability of the girls in the community, with the permission of the funding partner. Besides the classes, the counseling to the parents and the girls are offered by the Sisters.
