Our Work
Over the last 22 years, our work has evolved to ensure that every child has an opportunity to grow up in a family. We’ve learned that children who are separated from their families yearn to go back and feel the love and belonging a family can offer. Without families and within the confines of an institution, they grow up with lower self esteem, and lack the life skills to survive and thrive in the real world.
In order to ensure a family for every child, we have two core objectives: Reintegrating children in institutions to families and preventing children from entering institutional care.
Vision: A family for every child in our lifetime
Mission: We empower vulnerable children to reach their full potential
Re- integration / Transition
We know children do not belong in institutional care; they belong in families. We also know that each child’s journey back to the family is unique. As we lead the transition of children away from institutions, our job is to make sure this work is done in a safe, stable, and permanent way.
Our Thrive Scale™ tool helps the social workforce plan and oversee such reintegrations so that the child and family are safe, happy and thriving.
Prevention
Every day around the world, social workers, caregivers, and government officials make decisions that impact millions of vulnerable children. We provide these 'front line' workers with highly specialized training and educational resources, highlighting alternatives to Institutional care and enabling them to identify and support at-risk children long before separation is ever necessary.
At the community level, our work activates and strengthens safety nets such as the Bal Panchayats, Village Level Child Protection Committees and Ward Level Child Protection Committees so that at-risk children and their families need the help they need at the right time.
How We Measure Success
Miracle’s Thrive ScaleTM Methodology measures progress and assesses risk at every stage of our work. Developed over a decade, this one-of-a-kind tool is taking the guesswork out of vulnerable children’s care and protection.
