INDIA’S FIRST HOMES FOR TRANSGENDER CHILDREN
Dec. 5, 2020
India’s first homes for transgender children in need of care and protection will soon be established in Bengaluru. Two government-run homes for transgender children will be established in Bengaluru Urban.
About:
- The Ministry of Women and Child Development gave its nod for the project last week.
- Many transgender children in State-run children’s homes for girls or boys were not comfortable.
- It is essential that a home is established for transgender children as they face a lot of stigma and abuse. Establishing a separate home and giving them attention and care at a young age will help address some of their concerns.”
