    Rehabilitation center for homeless children
    (AIKTC, 2021-05) Kadam, Abhishek; Parui, Suraj Nayan (16AR16)
    The term homelessness is the situation of individual, a family or a community staying at an unstable, illegalized, inappropriate temporal place with lack of security and hope. The economy is not able to provide employment and income to majority of rural as well as urban poor. The urban poor as a community follows two value systems: traditional and modern. The population of the city grows through birth as well as migration. A person himself/herself does not chose to live in such unwilling conditions. According to UN, 1.6 billion people live in inadequate houses while 15 million are homeless. Ever imagined of a developed country US has a large number of homeless people. Even after years of Independence, lakhs of helpless people, from every city of India, with or without a family stay above the ground under open sky baring heat, cold and rain in ragged or no clothes in some cases. Not only homeless or orphan children are in need of a rehabilitation centre, but there are several cases that require it. Cases such as child labour, child abuse, child illiteracy, drug abuse and children in mental and health condition. A line said by Mother Teressa “We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start our homes to remedy this kind of poverty.”
