Support a Vulnerable child in a Community
Socio-political and economic factors can destabilize families. Through our community outreach programme we aim at creating greater capacities of these vulnerable families to attain economic and social empowerment and focus on a holistic sustainable development model that addresses the root causes of child abandonment.
Our Family Strengthening Programme helps us to keep the biological families together and touches the lives of nearly 25000 children across 32 locations.
Families experiencing crisis or extreme hardships may have difficulty caring adequately for their children, and often this can lead to child abandonment. Family Strengthening Programme (FSP) is a preventive measure whereby the families belonging to the most vulnerable sections of the society, those who are lost in the quagmire of poverty, social discrimination and are facing many other challenges to make ends meet are strengthened to avoid abandonment of children. Such families often belong to the below poverty line category and are caught up in the vicious cycle of economic, socio and cultural deprivations.
Under FSP, we work with families and communities to help them build their capacities so that children are taken care of and their overall development does not get hampered, thereby reducing the risk of abandonment. FSP interventions range from providing essential services to children, such as education, health and nutrition services, livelihoods for families and capacity building of caregivers and children to become sustainable leading to their self-reliance
Your donation will ensure that No child is at the risk of losing parental care and every child has a right to be nurtured so that they may reach their full potential to become self-reliant and responsible citizens.

Facilitate parental care for Children among next of kin families
Introduced in 2017, the Kinship Care Programme ensures that children without parental care grow up with minimal disruption to their educational, cultural and social lives.
Under this initiative, children who have lost their biological parents are cared for by their extended families or relatives. Our interventions safeguard the right of every parentless child to grow up in a familiar environment by strengthening the capability and income of the extended biological families, so that they can provide proper care and education, till the child attains adulthood.
The objectives of the Kinship care program are as follows:
- To assist kinship caregivers to provide ongoing chronological age appropriate support for the child without the minimum level of documentation service system, building on their informal supports and other available community resources.
- To ensure child's ongoing safety, stability and developmental needs.
- To build caregiver's capacity for continued and enhanced quality care.

Sponsor a Child at an SOS Children Villages in India
A stable, nurturing environment lays the foundation for a child's healthy development. Unfortunately, not every child has this advantage. Without the stability of a family, a child faces an increased risk of malnutrition, violence, exploitation and other life-threatening circumstances. A CHILD'S holistic development is best realized in a caring family.
Committed to provide a caring family to every child without parental care SOSCVl's Family Like Care Programme provides an innovative and individualized care model for children who have lost a family, enabling them to grow up with love, respect and security, within a SOS family home, and realize their full potential. Children grow up together as brothers and sisters, under the quality care provided by a trained caregiver or SOS mother. The lasting bond contributes to the holistic development of these children; this long-term care enables the transition from childhood to adulthood, into self-reliant, employable and contributing members of the society.
