Team Arpan is taking a short pause to rest and recharge. 💛

From 25th May to 29th May, our team will be on a scheduled summer break, taking time to slow down, reflect, and return with renewed energy for the work ahead. We’ll resume work on 1st June 2026.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while we take this brief break. Wishing everyone a safe, restful, and gentle summer week ahead. ☀️

Summer vacations often become our favourite childhood memories. ☀️📚

Train journeys, sleepovers at cousins’ homes, afternoons with storybooks, and endless playtime.

And sometimes, reading together can become a beautiful way to start important conversations too.

This , we’re sharing a few thoughtful reads that help children build confidence, understand emotions, and learn personal safety in age-appropriate ways. 💛

Because safety conversations don’t always have to begin with fear, they can begin with stories.

Save this for your child’s summer reading list and share it with another parent. 📖

You can access "My Safety Book" and Pinky's Story on PSE in "Ti**le Comics" on Arpan’s e-learning platform - www.arpanelearn.com.

As we close our campaign, we hope these conversations continue beyond the season, in homes, classrooms, story time moments, and everyday life.

Here’s wishing every child and family a happy, safe, and joy-filled summer ahead. ☀️💛
Happy Reading! 📚

Sometimes, the most important safety lessons are built through everyday habits. 💛

When children feel heard without fear of being scolded or blamed…
When they know they can say “no” to unsafe situations…
When they know a parent will believe them and support them…

They grow up feeling safer, stronger, and more confident.

This , let’s build small habits that create safe spaces for children, not just during vacations, but every day. ☂️

A canvas of collaboration. ✂️🎨🖌️✏️🟨🖼️

At Arpan, our work isn't just about tasks and timelines, it’s about the people who show up, step in, collaborate, and care for one another.

This year, for Appreciation Day, instead of just saying thank you, we turned our gratitude into art, a visual reminder of the respect and care we hold for every team.

Because while our missions are big, it’s these thoughtful, creative gestures that make the journey meaningful.

👉 How do you show appreciation at work? We’d love to hear from you in the comments!

You told us what safety in summers means to you. 💬

From staying hydrated to staying indoors, you've got the basics covered. 💪

But this summer, we want to go one step further.

Arpan is launching an exciting campaign this May, to drive home the message that - vacations mast hai, par safety first!

Because safety also means helping children identify unsafe touch, helping them understand boundaries, giving them the skills to say ‘No’ in unsafe situations and seek help.

That's what our campaign is about: Having fun while being safe 😊.

As we observe Se*ual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM), we’re centering the role of healing in stopping Child Se*ual Abuse (CSA).

When survivors are supported in safe spaces and supported in their healing journey they don’t just recover but help break the cycle of abuse.

Healing is where change begins and prevention takes root. Because healing is not just recovery from trauma, it is a step towards prevention.

Share this to support healing from CSA and build safer childhoods.

As we observe Se*ual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM), we have been building awareness around the Protection of Children from Se*ual Offences (POCSO) Act, an important law that acts as a deterrent for CSA offenders and supports prevention.

But prevention doesn’t start or end with the law—it begins with us, as adults.

And, with simple actions like having Personal Safety conversations with children at home and in schools.

When adults have simple, everyday conversations with children about safe and unsafe situations, private parts, saying ‘No’ to unsafe situations, seeking help from a helpful adult, and understanding that abuse is never a child’s fault, children gain the knowledge and confidence to recognise and respond to unsafe situations.

Share this with a parent or a teacher you know, and together, let us make Personal Safety Education an everyday life skill, so that every child stays safe!

In this video, collective voices are strengthening awareness about the Protection of Children from Se*ual Offences (POCSO) Act and its role in protecting every child.

Because when more people know the law, it becomes a stronger deterrent for the offenders, as we are all watching.

As a part of Se*ual Assault Awareness Month, we are reiterating that the POCSO Act is a shield for every child under 18. So, remember: "Kisi bhi bacche ko galat tareeke se chua ya unhe galat nazar se dekha, ya unki galat video banayi, toh ."

Stay tuned for our next post, where we will share how through simple Personal Safety messages that keep children safe.

Share, tag, and comment "Prevention Is Possible" to support the movement.
