Chetanalaya recognizes, promotes and protects the rights of children hailing in urban slum communities. Both boys and girls are encouraged and motivated to participate in Neighbourhood Children Parliament (NCP) which strengthens children's social responsibility and develop their social, communication and civic skills. The children begin to gain self confidence conquering psychological complexes. Having handled opportunities to lead, they develop their personalities and enhance their leadership qualities.

Having realized this, more than 100 NCPs comprising of around 2000 children are facilitated every year. NCP members were capacitated from time to time and as a result they took initiatives to develop their respective communities. Awareness programmes are conducted from time to time to make them aware of their rights. Chetanalaya is working for the children in distress and protects the children against exploitation and abuse.

Interventions are made in the cases like child labor, trafficking and sexual harassment, apart from offering counseling to the vulnerable children. Chetanalaya keeps adding child rights interventions so as to stir up the soul of a society that compromises on the future of a generation.
