Inchara Foundation
Inchara Foundation, a registered non-profit organization, primarily specializes in girls (children & adolescents) who are victims of sexual assault, helping them with the rehabilitation process, trauma counselling and skill development activities for self- dependency. We’ve designed different projects ‘from Prevention to Protection’ of youngsters from statutory offences. While Project Angel addresses prevention, Inchara House looks into Rehabilitation and restoration. Pocso Support Group is being formulated to assist the oldsters & members of the family of the victims of a kid sex crime. Through the Model Safe School Initiative, we are creating a safe ecosystem for the kids inside and outside of doors.

Through its outreach and awareness programs, the foundation has reached over 110 schools, provided mental‑health support, cyber‑safety training, and served tens of thousands of children and adults.
