In this blog, we reflect on Project Help India’s trusted, action‑oriented partnerships with the police and government agencies that protect and empower vulnerable children across Kotdwar, Bijnor, and beyond. Our collaborations are grounded in shared purpose: safeguarding children from trafficking, abuse, labour, street begging, drug gang influence, and early marriage, while relentlessly promoting every child’s right to education. By working hand‑in‑hand with the local police, Juvenile Justice Board, Child Welfare Committee, and anti‑trafficking units, we identify at‑risk children early, coordinate targeted services, and monitor outcomes -ensuring interventions are timely, appropriate, and respectful of families’ dignity. This high level collaboration is also supported at the grassroots though our Child Safeguarding lessons that are taught in all of our centre - keeping in mind that the kids we teach are extremely vulnerable at many levels.
Our Involvement and Impact just this Month
First, a child protection meeting chaired by the Additional Superintendent of Police brought together key partners to address rising threats to children and to map concrete prevention and rehabilitation pathways. Amrit Samuel, Project In‑Charge, presented field insights and collaborative needs from Kotdwar and Bijnor.
Second, our senior slum‑center students joined railway police for an anti‑drug awareness street play, reaching travelers with a powerful message and demonstrating the effectiveness of community‑driven policing.
Third, Uttarakhand Police featured Project Help India on their official page, significantly boosting our visibility and credibility with officers and government officials statewide.
Last year, in 2024, we launched Child Advocacy Summits in Punjab and Uttarakhand. These multi‑stakeholder forums brought together police, educators, social workers, and community leaders to brainstorm, share data, and co‑create protective strategies for at‑risk children. Each summit featured presentations from local police, further cementing trust and shared responsibility. We’re already planning the next Summit in March next year, expanding our collaborative reach and impact.
Beyond immediate protection, we invest heavily in prevention and education. We work closely with parents, especially mothers, highlighting the importance of schooling for girls and offering information on scholarships, safe transportation, and school‑ready routines. This proactive outreach has begun shifting attitudes in communities where schooling had been undervalued or viewed as less essential than early work or marriage.
During the COVID‑19 lockdown, our partnership certainly deepened. Police and government teams helped us distribute essential resources, food, and support to affected families, while we leveraged council channels to maintain schooling continuity where possible.
Our lasting message remains clear: protecting children requires coordinated, compassionate action and unwavering community trust.As we continue to broaden our impact through Child Advocacy Summits and sustained government partnerships, we invite corporate partners to join us through CSR programs that align with our values. Your support can fund advocacy, education, and protective services for vulnerable children, while also showcasing your commitment to ethical governance and community resilience.
If your organisation seeks meaningful, measurable social impact, we would love to explore a tailored partnership—funding programs, events, or scholarships, and co-branding opportunities. Please contact us to discuss how your CSR initiative can make a lasting difference in the lives of children and families across Kotdwar, Bijnor, Punjab, and Uttarakhand.
Your support matters, and we are most grateful to those whose generosity makes so much of this possible.
