Our Work So Far
End-to-end strategies for combating sexual violence and trafficking involve – prevention, rescue, rehabilitation, reintegration & policy advocacies. Of these strategies, we have thus far focused on the rehabilitation of child survivors of violence and exploitation.
Rehabilitation at Swakshatra, focuses on post-trauma care and healing through well regimented interventions including counseling, psychotherapy, psychiatric support, and unconventional methods like animal-assisted interventions. It further involves support with the criminal justice process, education (mainstream & bridge), vocational training, and a range of personality / confidence building activities.
This rehab, we have done through two of our programmes, the Swakshatra Home for Children and the Setu Bridge Learning & Vocational Training Centre.
Way Forward
Year 2025 per our plan, brings in Phase 2 of our operations, which envisages the construction of a one-stop secure safe-home called Gaurav Niwas, and the launch of our rescue vertical. Gaurav Niwas will be constructed on a piece of land gifted to our Trust by a kind philanthropist. This will have a Children’s Home, Bridge Learning and Vocational Training Centre, along with other ancillaries in one secure complex.
