Child Abuse and Neglect

Child Abuse and Neglect

The foundation actively works to prevent child abuse and neglect, providing both preventive and responsive services:

  • Education and Awareness: Educational programs target parents, guardians, and community members, teaching them how to recognize signs of abuse and neglect and the importance of child protection.
  • Support and Intervention: The foundation collaborates with local authorities and child protection agencies to provide immediate support to affected children. This includes safe housing, counseling, and legal assistance.
  • Advocacy and Policy Engagement: The foundation advocates for stronger legal frameworks and enforcement mechanisms to protect children from abuse and neglect. They also work to ensure that children have access to justice and rehabilitation services.
