Children of Vulnerable Families Program (CVF):

1000 Children Impacted

The program aims to mainstream & educate the children of incarcerated families after the age of 6 years; ensure their all-round development through various interventions to help them accomplish their academic, social, emotional goals and save them from becoming a victim of their parental incarceration. 

The Relevance

Why do we need this program?

  • Financial Crisis: The incarceration of one or both earning members of the family puts a financial strain on the children and the caregivers.
  • Social stigma: Due to the incarceration background of the parents, the children are often faced with a social stigma.
  • Increased vulnerability: Increased risk of being exploited by any neighbour/ relatives .kidnapped running away may even get into criminal activities.
  • Forced to take adult responsibilities: The children are forced to take up responsibilities of their parents in their absence.
  • Interrupted formal education: In child’s daily activities get interrupted due to the sudden absence of parents and the to miss out on years of formal education.
