The government now plans to shut by 2013 all 27 remaining institutions for children with serious disabilities. Most of these facilities are situated in poor remote villages.

The public campaign of BHC aims to bring to justice the persons and institutions guilty of the crimes committed in the Bulgarian homes for children with mental disabilities.
