The Indian government only allows state-run homes to accommodate healthy, school-age children under the age of 18. This led to sad moments last spring when children who had been at home with us for years had to move to distant relatives or to state-run homes. We try to continue to support these children. Our social worker is in constant contact with these families and we fund living costs such as food, clothing and education where necessary.
There are currently 48 disabled children and youth living at the home. We try to support and encourage them with trained professionals.
