CRY focuses on the 4 basic rights of children. These were defined in 1989, by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, in an international human rights treaty to which 191 countries, including India, are signatories.
- The right to survival - to life, health, nutrition, name and nationality
- The right to development - to education, care, leisure, recreation
- The right to protection - from exploitation, abuse, neglects
- The right to participation - to expression, information, thought and religion
CRY works to ensure that these rights are available to all categories of underprivileged children, including street children, girl children, children bonded in labor, children of commercial sex workers, physically and mentally challenged children and children in juvenile institutions. 25 years after it began work, CRY has made a profound difference to the lives of more than 1.25 million Indian children, by channelising the resources of over 100,000 individuals and organizations. In doing so, it has shown that lasting change happens when individuals believe it can happen and do what they can to make it happen.
