Childline Kenya
Childline Kenya harnesses the power of technology to provide support services to vulnerable children across Kenya. Through the provision of a 24-hour helpline, Childline provides children and adults access to advice, information, and basic counselling around a range of child protection issues, and acts as a vital referral network linking children to appropriate services – a unique initiative in the Kenyan context. Through a range of workshops, conferences and outreach work, Childline educates communities on child rights issues. Most importantly, Childline acts as a channel through which children’s voices can be heard and is a vital advocate at the national level for child rights issues.
