Among them the children who have runaway from their homes and struggling for survival on their own and those having no families are the most vulnerable. The present study is an attempt to understand the survival strategies, coping mechanisms and needs and concerns of vulnerable street children so that meaningful intervention programmes for their welfare and rehabilitation can be designed.
