Mobile teams for homeless children across all corporation areas in state
The team aims to understand the background of the children, provide need-based services, carry out health check-ups, and enrol them in schools to ensure they are not deprived of health and education.
According to Sunil Dusane, women and child development officer, Nashik, "The state govt has decided on one team for each of the corporations across the state, and Nashik is one of the beneficiaries." The officer pointed out that a team was appointed way back in 2023 in Nashik city as part of the pilot project for six months when it carried out the exercise.
Every city will have one team with a school bus, counsellor, teacher, and caretaker.
The school bus is equipped with a CCTV camera, GPS, TV set for entertainment of children, and indoor games like a carrom board, etc. "We found 285 children, including 121 boys, who needed attention. Proper reports were prepared about every individual, and the same was documented with the govt. Many of them got Aadhaar cards and other certificates delivered to them through the various services offered," said Sonali Shahane, counsellor of the team active in Nashik then.
The teacher-member of the team was engaged in teaching the students, preparing them before enrolment in schools. "Since these children are not in school, they are first taught during the sessions in the 'school bus'. Later, they are admitted to the nearest NMC school," said Madhure Kanawade, a teacher.
