PACT – Prevention of Abuse in Children & Teens

Creating awareness and protecting children and teenagers from abuse, addiction, trafficking, and harmful influences through education and community action.

Building Awareness & Protection

Through the PACT (Prevention of Abuse in Children & Teens) initiative, HEART Foundation works to create awareness around drug abuse, sexual abuse, child exploitation, and harmful behavioral patterns among youth.

In collaboration with Navi Mumbai Police, Mumbai Police, BMC, educational departments, and institutions, the initiative has already reached over one lakh students through workshops, campaigns, and community programs.

PACT aims to continue expanding awareness and preventive education across schools, colleges, and communities.

2 Million Steps to Hope

As part of a large awareness campaign, three runners — John Moriarty (USA), Chris Joseph Smith (Australia), and Tharun Kumar (India) — covered over 1600 km across Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu in 36 days.

The initiative aimed to spread awareness against:

  • Child abuse
  • Human trafficking
  • Child labor
  • Substance abuse

The campaign also focused on creating resources for long-term child rehabilitation and social support.
