Why?

The psychological trauma faced by the children requires special care and attention. Regular meetings with teachers and guardians are held to monitor the children’s well-being and education; teachers were instructed to deal these children with patience and utmost care. Special tutoring and test prep are also given to needy Hamare Bachche students to inspire confidence and improve performance. Beginning with admission in the schools and hostels, their every need as students was taken care of by SEWA.

How?

The primary aim of the rehabilitation of the children after the horrible events of 2002 is to divert their minds from the tragic incident. As education should be the main priority for any child, it is crucial for the children to go back to school and attend it regularly. SEWA started the Hamare Bachche program to sponsor and encourage the children to continue their education. However, the children were afraid to leave their homes as they were still haunted by the past. Their mothers were also reluctant to send their children to school out of fear.

SEWA initiated a faith-building process with its grassroots researchers acting as hand-holders. The SEWA team frequently visited and spent more time with the children and their mothers giving solace and encouragement, supporting their return to school and regular activities.

In addition, special teams visit the children at school every week. The team meets the class teachers, principals and gets the report of the child’s progress. Regular meetings with parents are held to help counsel parents on how to provide quality education for their children at home. The team members also tutor the weak students and co-ordinate with schoolteachers regularly and especially during the examination time to inspire confidence and increase marks.
