As a child, you need someone who stands by you and believes in you, no matter what. SOS Children’s Villages is here for those children who are growing up without the care and support they need. Our quality care puts their individual needs and best interests first and foremost and provides a nurturing and stable [family] environment. With strong and healthy relationships, each child and young person can grow up with the trust and sense of belonging that is essential for them to become their strongest selves.
Alternative care is one of the largest wings of SOS Children’s Villages in Ethiopia programs that provides care in settings other than the child’s or young person’s immediate family. The Alternative Care services include family-like care, foster family care, small group homes, kinship care, and supervised independent living arrangements.
