Vision
To build a future where every care leaver has the opportunity to thrive and is self-reliant
Mission
To fix the missing link in India's aftercare system by creating a peer-led, tech-enabled support system that offers shelter, emotional care, skills, jobs, and financial guidance
I feel a sense of belonging in CLiC by turning the emotional gap faced by CareLeavers into a platform we can finally call our own.
CLiC’s unique work lies in being built by careleavers, for careleavers, turning lived experiences into real, practical solutions. It goes beyond one-time interventions by
creating a continuum of care for individuals across every stage after 18. Most importantly, CLiC addresses the often-ignored emotional gap, transforming isolation
into a strong sense of belonging and community.
