The Central Adoption Resource
Authority (CARA) of the Ministry of Women & Child Development has started a monthly “Jan Sampark” program to enable the public to have interaction with its officials
and staff for seeking information related to Adoption as well as
flagging their concerns.
The first of its kind programme
was held in New Delhi yesterday. Nearly 150 Prospective
Adoptive Parents (PAPs), Adoptive Parents and representatives of agencies
participated in the session, which lasted for more than four hours.
Details pertaining to Immediate Placement and
Special Needs Adoption Module of Child Adoption Resource Information &
Guidance System (CARINGS) as well as the newly launched Grievance/Query portal
were shared with all the stakeholders. Also many of the PAPs were
counselled and motivated to go for adopting older children.
The event will now be a regular feature every month apart
from the quarterly Facebook live chat by CEO CARA.
