Miracle Foundation India was invited by the Social Justice and Empowerment (SJE) Department, Gujarat, as a technical partner to orient newly recruited government child protection functionaries, Child Welfare Committee members, Juvenile Justice Board members, and Child Care Institution staff from across the state in Gandhinagar on August 8, 2025. Around 300 participants were oriented on Mission Vatsalya, child rights, child protection, and non-institutionalization, equipping them to implement child protection initiatives effectively.

Additionally, in close collaboration with the Gujarat State Child Protection Society, SJE, and other government authorities, Miracle Foundation India is reinforcing the importance of family-based care and preventive approaches in the state’s child protection system. These efforts aim to create a supportive ecosystem where communities, caregivers, and officials work together to ensure every child’s right to a safe, nurturing family environment.
