Helping the left-behind children
SOCIAL work professionals are being encouraged to help take care of left-behind children in a document issued by the ministries of civil affairs, education and finance as well as the Chinese Communist Youth League Central Committee and the All-China Women’s Federation.
The document encourages professionals to provide assistance in caring for and protecting left-behind children, including conducting home visits, surveys and evaluations, reporting cases or suspicions of child abuse, and offering psychological counselling.
The document said relevant expertise will also play a greater role in community services, such as promotion of safety education in schools and rural communities, protection of children’s mental health, and prevention of children’s misdemeanors.
Left-behind children are rural children under 16 whose parents are migrant workers or who have one migrant-worker parent and another incapable of guardianship.
