Countless children and families frequently struggle to access essential services and support, leading to increased vulnerability. This can result in children becoming orphaned, victims of trauma, or facing severe challenges such as life on the streets, early marriages, involvement in criminal activities, or institutional care.
Currently, approximately 2.7 million children live in residential care facilities or institutions globally. This figure is part of the broader category of displaced and separated children, which includes those in foster care, unaccompanied minors, and children living on the streets, totaling around 140 million children in various forms of alternative care or separated from their families.
Every child deserves a safe, stable, and loving home. Achieving this vision requires a collective effort from all organisations to support children, young people, and families.
Alarmingly, 80% of children in orphanages have at least one living parent. These children deserve to grow up in safe and loving homes, with many potentially being reunited with parents or family members, and others supported into alternative family placements.
At SAFE, we address the fundamental causes of family separation, such as poverty, conflict, and discrimination. We advocate for and support government efforts to reform care systems. By partnering to develop global expertise and skills, we demonstrate how children can be safely reunited with their families.
SAFE advocates globally for child protection, deinstitutionalisation, and family-based care while focusing on and funding local solutions. We collaborate closely through international partnerships and with local professionals and community members. To date, in Kenya, we provide early intervention, ensure appropriate care through effective gatekeeping, and safeguard the rights of separated and displaced children by delivering essential services.
