Outreach Worker – 1 Posts

DCPU Dindigul operates as the District Child Protection Unit for Dindigul district in Tamil Nadu, a government body tasked with implementing child welfare schemes, monitoring the well‑being of minors, and coordinating with NGOs, schools, and health services to safeguard children at risk. The Outreach Worker position focuses on field‑based activities such as visiting households and schools to identify children in need of protection, conducting awareness sessions on child rights and safety, facilitating referrals to appropriate support services, and maintaining accurate records of interactions and outcomes. Day‑to‑day responsibilities include preparing outreach plans, engaging with community leaders, documenting cases, and assisting in the implementation of government‑run programmes like ICDS or ICPS. The role suits candidates who have completed at least 12th standard, possess strong communication skills in Tamil, are comfortable traveling within the district, and have an interest in social work or community development. Prior experience in volunteer work or NGOs is helpful but not mandatory, as the primary requirement is a willingness to work directly with vulnerable populations and follow established protocols.
