How We Work

To eliminate all forms of violence against children, especially girls, we have categorised the issues into four groups.

Abuse of Children at Home and in the Community

Abuse of Children in Commercial Settings

Abuse of Children under Culturally Sanctioned Practices

Abuse of Children in Digital Space

Our child-focused model

The needs of children, their families, and their communities are central to our work as demonstrated in our model, and the program is built from the ground up.

OUR Theory of Change

JRC fights for justice to bring about the behavioural and systemic change required for a lasting, sustainable impact on child protection issues - child marriage, child trafficking, child labour, and child sexual abuse including online - through awareness and legal deterrence.

We ensure that the cycle of justice must result in closure for victims and their families, reformation of perpetrators, and deterrence for society.

Our Strategy

Through the implementation of a systematic, highly focused, and intensive intervention model, we can effectively address the root causes of these heinous crimes. JRC’s NGO partners follow the PICKET strategy to combat all forms of child sexual abuse across India –

Policy intervention for prevention, protection, prosecution and rehabilitation.
Investment in Infrastructure and Institutional framework.
Convergence of services, Capacity building, Collaboration of stakeholders, and Communication in real-time for action against crime.
Knowledge and awareness at all levels so that all stakeholders such as children, parents, law enforcement agencies and institutions make informed decisions.
Economics of the crime understood and addressed, Ecosystem level response and 12 years of free, quality, public education for every child.
Technology for change, deterrence, monitoring and time-bound justice delivery.
