Children who receive insufficient or no parental care are especially vulnerable; this occurs when a child's family either fails to provide for them or abandons them. By providing residential care and aftercare support, HOPE safeguards their rights to participation, survival, development, and protection. Children in need of care and protection are given age-appropriate nutrition, healthcare and treatment, elementary and special education, counselling, skill-building training, co-curricular classes, sports, vocational skills, and career counselling in seven Residential Child Care Centres (registered under Section41 (1) of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act 2015). These services are provided to ensure the holistic growth and development of the children.

An inventive enterprise called Education on Wheels runs on a bus. Children aged 6 to 14 from the Chitpur slum and the adjacent regions of North Kolkata who are enrolled in school or who will soon do so receive educational help from this project. Children who have learning gaps are given access to remedial coaching programmes. This promotes their healthy growth and allows children to fulfil their educational potential, which will help them land decent employment, give back to the community, and eventually live poverty-free lives.

Motivated children who have never attended school or who have left school early are enrolled in formal education. To make sure the kids stay in school and finish their education, many tactics are used.
