Catalysts for Social Action (CSA) partnered with the Department of Women and Child Development (DWCD), Indore Division, Madhya Pradesh for a pilot project to train 8000 Anganwadi Workers (AWWs) in 4 districts of the Division with an objective of training AWWs to identify vulnerable children in their area and report them to appropriate authorities for necessary action. The pilot run was an eye-opener, with nearly 2000 children identified who were possibly in need of support, care, and protection. We conducted around 400 urgent investigations of children’s cases that needed immediate attention. This information will be submitted to the district authorities for action.
We also created a Video to increase awareness for the same.
