UCEP Nepal started a Drop-In Centre on May 9, 2016, which has since evolved into a “Socialization Center” aimed at reintegrating children into their families and society through vocational training and education. This is implemented in partnership with the National Child Rights Council (NCRC). The center can accommodate up to 50 children, and as of September 2024 it serves 19 children rescued from the streets.
