- undertaking legal proceedings for the transition of children to
ECHO's Transitional Home, a recognized "Fit Institution" under
the Act.
- giving orientation training to the stakeholder of JJA 2000 on the Act
and its implementation.

is a police unit, provisioned for under JJA 2000, specially trained in
handling children in a child friendly manner and it may be assisted by
recognized NGO's.
