Child abuse is a growing problem in Nagaland, India, where many children face physical, sexual, and emotional harm. Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) play a key role in protecting these children by offering shelter, counselling, education, and emergency help. This chapter looks at how NGOs like Prodigal’s Home, Community Educational Centre Society (CECS) in Dimapur and Child Helpline Dimapur support child abuse victims. In this study, qualitative study was used with interviews from 10 staff members from these NGOs.

The study uses a systems approach to child protection as its framework. It highlights the need for more government support to make NGOs stronger. This research fills a gap in studies on local NGOs in Nagaland..
