This book presents the outcomes of a field action project at the
Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS). Project Chunauti (English
translation: Project Challenge) focused on a group of
intellectually disabled, orphan children who were survivors of
abuse, exploitation and neglect, and describes their journey toward
empowerment. It offers a vision and a reproducible, adaptable model
for rehabilitation that can foster the social re-integration of
intellectually disabled orphans at institutions. As the
implementation of laws is especially important for vulnerable
groups, the book also outlines a socio-legal approach that not only
impacts the children directly, but can also bring about policy
level reforms. Project Chunauti was born out of the need to explore
options for these children and to set standards for their care,
protection, rehabilitation and social re-integration. The core
objectives of the project were to provide support and services,
including counseling, education, life skills and vocational skills
training, as well as medical and psychiatric support to help them
overcome the trauma of abuse and exploitation. Its further goal was
to train the staff of state-run homes and state authorities,
helping them prepare and implement care plans and rehabilitation,
combat child sexual abuse and malnutrition, employ positive
disciplining, and better understand disabilities. The book also
draws on the Project team's experiences of rolling out the
replication process in Maharashtra. This book highlights the role
of the courts, media and other stakeholders in the journey towards
empowerment and justice. It is a combination of social-work
methods, application and implementation of law and legal advocacy,
as well as best practices for protecting children's rights and
developing rehabilitation and re-integration projects for
intellectually disabled, orphaned children in India. The
interventions detailed here provide a reproducible, adaptable model
of intervention for children in institutional care across the
country.
