Concept note
Need of partnership forchanging unemployed youthinto social assistants
 Today, major elements of society, especially the senior citizens, farmers,ordinary illiterate citizens, women, do not have any hope of assistancefrom the so-called social workers…since most of them, now a days hasbecome ‘commission agents’ or ‘political agents’ or ‘land agents’. Thescenario in the villages is very bad.What we require at all level is ….Change….Parivartan.Everyone expects youths should play a major role in nation buildingprocess but no one cares for their primary need of ‘bread and butter’!Empty stomached can’t think of nation. The condition of 10-12
th
failed,school-college dropouts is even worst than the regular educated butunemployed youths. To bring youths into the mainstream and make them feel they areintegral part of the national development, we must build some model inwhich their basic need of monthly earning and social prestige will betaken care of.
We dare to build such network of young social workers acrossthe county.
Basic necessity of any young social worker is money plus prestige.
SMSONE’s business opportunity as ‘Community Leader’ will take care of his/her monthly earning & ‘Mobile Reporter’ post will take care of his/her social prestige.
And then…..
•
Why not groom SMSONE’s Community Leaders as socialassistance to serve the masses?
•
Why not create a network of such social assistance across India?
•
Why not keep them intact to launch various programs of our  partnering organizations?
•
Why not train them on various issues so that they can guide theneedy people properly?
