Catalysts for Social Action (CSA), the not-for-profit social enterprise of Kale Consultants Ltd., came into existence in September 2002. The objective was the fulfilment of a social responsibility of the organisation and the conviction that we have a role to play in bringing about positive social change.

The top priority area outlined is to work on Child Adoption and catalyse the process of adoption. We work on building a community of all individuals and agencies directed towards the common cause of promoting adoptions. The aim is to enhance the number of adoptions in India and focus on building a 'safety net' that can provide more humane care for institutionalised children.

The two-fold objectives of CSA are:
	To enhance the number of adoptions (through promotion, co-ordination, legalization)
	To ensure better child care both, while the child is institutionalised (the most formative period in a child’s life) and post-adoption (where guidance is a key factor)

In a short span of time, CSA has implemented numerous projects in its chosen areas. CSA’s activities include (field) Research, Training, Awareness and Promotion and Networking across agencies and stakeholders for the speedy and effective movement of children into the adoption stream.

CSA Founder Members and Office Bearers are a group of highly qualified professionals each, well established and recognized in his/her respective field of work. Each member is associated in one way or another with Child Welfare. All CSA members are active participants in CSA activities and are completely committed to promoting the cause.
