Help prevent sexual abuse of children in India
Organization information
ARPAN
Location: Mumbai, India
Summary
The WHO reports, India has the world's largest number of sexually abused children. Arpan's key project - Personal Safety Education (PSE) program addresses this issue by giving children age-appropriate information and skills to help protect themselves from sexual abuse. Children who report instances of having been sexually abused are supported with counselling and intervention to make sure abuse stops. Parents and teachers are made aware of the issue also. Important Notice about Projects in India: We expect that there will be significant delays in getting funds to this project due to new regulatory requirements that impact GlobalGiving's ability to disburse to Indian-banked organizations. GlobalGiving is working hard to address the issue, but there is a chance that we will be unable to disburse funds to this project. If we cannot disburse funds, donations to this project may be reallocated to another organization per our terms and conditions.
