Who are the children?
The children come from families where the total family income for five members is about $ 150 per month, from backgrounds that are traumatic, often abusive and violent.
Parikrma children come from homes where:
- A few children have mothers who are sex workers, struggling to create a stable home
- Many children are being brought up by single, illiterate mothers who have either fled from abusive husbands or have been abandoned
- Over 50% of the children have alcoholic fathers
- Many children come from families who have fled their villages for reasons such as social discrimination and extreme economic hardship.
Every year, we also enroll several children who are refugees from North-eastern states in India; they are often sent off alone by poor parents who are victims of the local insurgency and poor economic environment.
