Educo-MSSWS work to strengthen collaboration with District Authorities on Child Protection and Welfare 🤝

**Visit to the Child Welfare Committee (CWC)**

Last month, 8 members from Educo-MSSWS project in Palghar, Maharashtra visited the District Child Welfare Committee (CWC) office in Palghar.
The visit was an important opportunity for the team to explore synergies and understand the systems in place for child protection. The CWC Chairperson and members welcomed the team warmly and engaged in a detailed discussion regarding identification of vulnerable children and development of Individual Care Plans for each child. They also shared about various government welfare schemes for orphaned children and those living with single parents. With updated information on the kind of support available for children from such systems, and requirements to access these schemes, our team came back with knowledge which will help in our everyday work with vulnerable children.

**Visit to Child Development Protection Unit**

The team also had a meaningful meeting with Mr. Vinod Rathore, the District Child Protection Officer (DCPO) of Palghar district. Mr. Vibin Varghese, Sr. Shanti Pushpa, and Mr. Prakash Bhavar, from Educo-MSSWS team presented about our work to Mr. Rathore and were appreciated and assured by him for his support in the work.

He also encouraged the team to meet the District Collector to present the organization’s initiatives, highlighting their potential for wider impact.
