India
has half a billion population below 17 years of age, Nearly
41% of the urban and 51%
of the rural population live
under the poverty level. 48% adults are illiterates. Only
15% of the young people have access to a formal school. There
are
110,000 secondary school in which 272,000 students are enrolled.
However, there are 59% educated unemployed. Human beings
are the greatest potential of all creation and resource.
And "God
with the individual" is the greatest practical resource.
Since there is no national requirement and funding for career
guidance in the school curriculum, the urgency to provide
guidance and counselling to the young people by NGO's is
crucial. Hence
VCD is set up to change the present scenario at formal and
non-formal sector in India.
VCD is a registered, non-governmental organization serving all
communities of people in India
