Who are we?

India’s First Careleaver-Led, Non-Profit “Startup”

Fixing the missing link in India’s Aftercare system.

“Every year, thousands of youth age out of Child Care Institutions with no ID, no family, no income — and no roadmap for life.

We’ve lived that reality.

That’s why we built CLiC — India’s first careleaver-led, tech-enabled, Non-profit startup that provides identity, shelter, skills, jobs, financial access, and above all — dignity — to the most invisible youth in our system.”

Here’s What You Should Know

Beyond 18 Leaving Child Care Institutions

Aug, 2019

The “Beyond 18- Leaving Child Care Institutions”, 2019, is one of the first studies conducted to identify & document the problems faced by youth transitioning out of institutional care. It emphasizes the importance of providing continuous support to these care leavers in areas like education, employment, and mental health. The report also offers policy recommendations to improve their integration into society and ensure their well-being.​

Central Government Order

Dec, 2023

A significant stepping stone towards addressing the challenges faced by care leavers, the Central Government issued this order. CLiC is proud to support the government in solving these issues and ensuring a smoother transition for Care Leavers into independent living.​

Growing Careleavers’ Family Across India​

Our family started coming together in Rajasthan, now Careleavers from other States are joining too.

We started assisting the Government of Rajasthan in creating awareness about Aftercare services to children leaving child care homes. We collaborated with Stakeholders like DCR, DCPUs, CWCs, Corporate Partners and other NGO partners to create a database & provide aftercare services to Careleavers of Rajasthan. We are grateful that other states have started understanding importance of fast track implementation of aftercare program and are becoming part of this movement. Here is the growing list of states & UTs joining us.​

Stories of Hope : Hear from those touched by Us.

जब मैं 18 साल का था तो मुझे अपना आश्रय गृह छोड़ना पड़ा, कोई समर्थन और उचित मार्गदर्शन न मिलने के कारण मुझे सड़क पर सोना पड़ा। मुझे बहुत संघर्षों का सामना करना पड़ा। मुझे एक पुलिस स्टेशन में लगे एक पोस्टर से CLiC के बारे में पता चला और जब मैं उनके कार्यालय गया तो गिरीश ने मेरी मदद की और अपना जीवन बेहतर बनाने के लिए मेरा मार्गदर्शन किया।

मैं अपना Care Home छोड़ने के बाद, मुझे किराया देने और अपने लिए नौकरी ढूंढने में समस्याओं का सामना करना पड़ा। CLiC मेरे जीवन में आया और इन समस्याओं से निपटने में मेरी मदद की। मैं भी CLiC के साथ रहकर अपने जैसे बच्चों की मदद करना चाहता हूं।

मैं भरत सिंह हूं, मैं जयपुर का रहने वाला हूं। 18 वर्ष की आयु पूरी करने पर, मैं CLiC में शामिल हो गया। गिरीश भैया ने शेफ के रूप में काम करने के मेरे सपने को पूरा करने में मेरी बहुत मदद की। उनकी मदद से, मैं जयपुर के एक अच्छे 5 सितारा होटल में रसोइया के रूप में काम कर रहा हूं और मेरी मदद करने के लिए मैं सीएलआईसी का आभारी हूं।
