Kiran Modi, Gurneet Kaur Kalra, Leena Prasad, 2023

Challenges and experiences of Care Leavers, and more so in COVID-19 times, encouraged Udayan Care to start an intervention for providing extended support to Care Leavers from other CCIs too, who may not have access to support and are expected to survive on their own upon reaching adult hood. Based on concerns, evidence, and years of experience as practitioners, Udayan Care started a program, the Aftercare Outreach Program (AOP), to support financially as well as by close hand-holding and mentoring support for educational and vocational skills attainment, housing, and basic needs, employability skills, leading to gainful employment.
