ICPS Scheme
The ICPS scheme PDF is a governmental program implemented by the Government Of India to help secure the safety of children, with a special emphasis on children in need of care and protection, juveniles in conflict or contact with the law and other vulnerable children. Its primary purpose is to create a central structure to provide oversight and standardization for pre-existing and evolving child protection schemes in India. Proposed in 2006 and implemented in 2009, the ICPS is administered at the state level by state child protection committees and societies and at the district level by district child protection societies, among other institutions.
The Integrated Child Protection Scheme (ICPS) is mainly an instrument to implement the provisions of J.J. Act, 2000 which has been amended as the Juvenile Justice Act, 2015 and came into force w.e.f. 15.01. 20106. The State has created a Juvenile Justice Fund for providing facilities to juveniles. The objective of ICPS is creating a safe and secure environment for children in conflict with law as well as children in need of care and protection.
