  • Summary

  • Choosing to adopt a child is a huge decision. So, unlike what you see in the movies, a hero can’t pick up a random child from the street and raise them. You would need to follow a comprehensive legal process with measures set in place by the government to ensure the safety and stability of the child.

    Anandhi Yagnaraman, CEO of Catalysts for Social Action, along with Smriti Gupta, Founder of Where Are India’s Children and Dr. Aloma Lobo, a pediatrician & counsellor by profession and the ex-chairperson of CARA and Adoption Coordinating Agency, Karnataka, help us understand the adoption process, the systemic challenges, and the reason why there continues to be stigma around adoption in India.
