A meaningful step towards inclusive child protection and rehabilitation. 🌱
The Regional Consultation Meet on “Non-Institutionalized Rehabilitation of Children with Special Needs (Divyang Children)” for the North-East Zone — comprising Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, and Tripura — was successfully held on 30 January 2026 at the Assam Water Centre, Basistha.
The Assam Care Leavers’ Association (ACLA) was honored to participate in this important regional consultation, contributing to discussions on inclusive, community-based rehabilitation, aftercare support, and strengthening protection mechanisms for children with special needs.
The consultation brought together stakeholders, child protection professionals, and representatives from across the North-East to discuss sustainable and child-centric approaches that ensure dignity, inclusion, and equal opportunities for every child.
We sincerely thank State Adoption Resource Agency Assam (SARA Assam) and the State Child Protection Society Assam for organizing and facilitating this significant platform for dialogue and collaboration.
