What are we building and why?
A new girls’ trauma management centre to be built adjacent to the boys’ refuge that already exists on site. The idea is to expand the rehabilitation services that support Chora Chori’s rescue operations in India as well as to offer a residential space for twelve girls.
Distressingly, many of the children Chora Chori save have spent time on the streets where they are abused and forced into child labour. Following the return of the children to Nepal they require special attention before they can be returned to their families or placed in further care. The centre has been designed to provide specialist support and counselling for the children as they adjust to life back in Nepal.
