Campaign Story
About the project
The project areas of Alwar and Bharatpur districts in Rajasthan experience high rates of school dropouts, early marriage, and child labour. These challenges are driven by seasonal migration, limited access to identity documents, poor access to schools, gender bias, and inadequate school infrastructure, all of which disrupt children’s education and limit girls’ potential.
Making a difference
CRY America’s Project SJJKS works to reduce socio economic vulnerability and ensure that children stay in school. Key interventions include rescuing children from labour and trafficking and mainstreaming them into formal education, preventing girls from entering child marriage, creating income opportunities for parents to support their children’s education, linking families to government programs for financial assistance, strengthening child protection systems at the district level, and providing academic support to help children bridge learning gaps.
The Way Forward
● Retain 9,758 children aged 6 to 18 in schools
● Enroll 460 first-time learners aged 6 to 18 in schools
● Re-enroll 250 dropout children aged 6 to 18 in schools
● Introduce life skills sessions in 18 government schools for 500 adolescents
● Conduct vocational exposure programs for 150 adolescents
● Track instances of child marriage and child labor through 15 Village-Level Child Protection Committees via monthly visits covering 5,000 children
● Establish 2 Child Marriage Control Rooms, each staffed by 5 trained volunteers, to provide protection support for girls
● Link 300 adolescent girls to skill training programs
● Strengthen School Management Committees (SMCs) in 30 villages and ensure capacity building of 230 SMC members
The way forward
● Strengthening of VCPC in operational villages.
● Identification of vulnerable children and linking with the scheme related to the child rights
● Support to the victim families to get justice and the compensation from the department.
● Interface with the multi stakeholders at community level for prevention of child trafficking.
