The present study has been designed to examine the Children’s care and wellbeing in institutional setting. A well-designed interview schedule was used to gather the information from children and a scale to gauge the subjective wellbeing of Kashana’s residents was used as well. Three Kashana i.e. Rawalpindi, Faisalabad and Lahore were selected as a population of the present study. The purposive sampling technique was used from the target population; about 150 respondents. Analysis of the data was made on the basis of Univariate descriptive, bivariate descriptive analysis and Chi-square test. The results indicates that slightly more than half of the respondents exhibited moderate level of subjective wellbeing and remaining half were assessed high level of wellbeing. The study found that Kashana plays an important role in the life of residents as majority of the children were satisfied with all the facilities. It was found that Kashana is one of the major institutions that provide a peaceful shelter with all the basic necessities (food, education, health care) to vulnerable children.
