The Nazhoen Lamtoen Team
The concept of ‘Nazhoen Lamtoen’ germinated at the beginning of 2013 due to distressing encounters with many vulnerable children and youths.These stark experiences revealed young lives exposed to distressing and abusive situations of daily living, who find no solace and support as they fall in the gaps of many existing youth agencies – public, private and institutional.
Nazhoen Lamtoen envisages intervening in this gap in societal care, with an emphasis on post-released children from the juvenile (YDRC) Tsimasham and rehabilitation center and other such orphaned and suddenly disadvantaged youths.
