At TARA, we protect, support and empower vulnerable children and families in Delhi through a comprehensive, long-term approach. From prevention to independent adulthood, our programmes ensure that every child can grow up in safety, dignity and confidence.

Child protection is not a single intervention. It is a continuum of care adapted to each child’s situation and level of need. We work closely with public authorities, communities and professionals to support children at every stage of their journey.

Our approach

A Continuum of Care

Our programmes are not isolated. They form a continuum of care — from prevention and family support to residential protection and transition to independence — each adapted to a different level of need.

No two children follow the same path. Each programme is an independent response to a specific situation, delivered by a multidisciplinary team working alongside public authorities.

Our Programmes

Community Outreach

Family-Based Care

Preventing separation is at the heart of our work. Through outreach in South Delhi, we support families with education, healthcare and counselling to reduce risks of abuse, neglect and school dropout.
