OUR PROFILE

Alternative Child Care Alliance began as a movement in 2012 as a movement to defend the less fortunate

  • Before registration, we had a privilege to mobilize likeminded organizations to participate in one of the biggest events that happened for the first time in Kenya in 2013. This consultative conference (The First Adoption Conference in Africa) at the Hilton Hotel which was attended by Organizations from Europe, America, Africa and Kenya. The Principal Secretary, Ministry of Labor and Social Protection and the Director, Department of Children Services who both attended hailed the occasion to be a good beginning in the Child Protection in Kenya the Kenyan history.
  • Then, in November 2014, we were part of the Adoption Month celebration that brought in Orphanages, Churches, Adoption Agencies, the Government of Kenya and Corporate Societies together to sensitize on Child Adoption in Kenya. 

Children at risk usually struggle to get education funds due to factors ranging from one case to another. In our interventions we place requests to friends, families and likeminded people to support at least one child at a time. Education support is one major encouragement that gives them hope whenever they see themselves with other peers in classrooms. 

The sporting activities have always remained a constant social interaction which keep children together and occupied. During such an activity, they are busy and not exposed to idleness that may land them in abusive situations. We have coaches that keep eyes on them and P/Matrons too. Over (500) five hundred youths are benefiting from this initiative yearly.

Families that are considered to be in danger of break ups need a lot of support to enable children keep within. We therefore engage to help them fix their differences.

Children usually don’t know when it’s too far until they are made aware of how far people from different genders should go. We therefore educate them on these matters to be aware even if it is a close relative. 

This is another area of vulnerability for young girls who cannot access sanitary towels. We always educate them on how to avoid favors done with expectations after. The opposite gender may want to support on the provision of sanitary towels but expects an exchange of favor too. We make them aware of how to detect such favors.

Equipping children with knowledge and strategies to protect themselves from abduction is crucial for their safety. Through our education programs on abduction, we raise awareness among children about the risks and tactics used by abductors. We provide guidance on how to recognize and avoid dangerous situations, as well as steps to take if approached by a stranger. By empowering children with the necessary information and skills, we aim to reduce the likelihood of abduction and keep them safe from harm.

Empowering girls with knowledge about menstrual health is essential for their well-being and dignity. Through our menstrual health awareness initiatives, we educate young girls about menstruation, hygiene practices, and the importance of using sanitary products. By breaking the silence and stigma surrounding menstruation, we help girls manage their periods confidently and stay healthy and focused on their education and personal development.

Every child deserves to know and assert their rights. Our awareness campaigns on children's rights aim to educate children and caregivers about the fundamental rights guaranteed to every child, as outlined in international conventions and national laws. By promoting awareness and understanding of children's rights, we empower children to speak up against abuse, exploitation, and discrimination, ensuring their protection and well-being in all aspects of their lives.
