Catalysts for Social Action, had in 2006, initiated an experiment in Latur, Marathawada to examine whether parents from metro cities, were willing to adopt children from non-city agencies. Our objective was to find homes for 121 waiting children. The results were phenomenal; with the help of the State Government, we were able to transfer 15 older children into agencies that could place them. We also, facilitated more than 35 placements in the span of about 10 months. Significantly, the placements happened in metro locations such as Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Chennai completely negating the oft-touted myth that city parents are reluctant to adopt from non-metro agencies.

Encouraged by the success of Latur, we have now moved into Nagpur and Wardha and have commenced work with some agencies. There are CARA-listed agencies in Nagpur and Wardha. Currently, we are working closely with 3 agencies. We have launched an extensive promotional programme through outdoor hoardings in Nagpur and Wardha .

This website aims primarily at making available, information on the participating agencies and their waiting children, Our hope is that suitable childcare facilities and short, processing cycles will motivate waiting parents across the country, to work with those agencies.
