Summary
Violence against children is a serious problem in Kenya today. Approximately one-third of children have experienced physical or sexual violence by the time they are 18. Despite the great need, due to funding limitations and capacity, counseling and support services are nearly non existent for children. This project will address this gap; providing routine, quality counseling services to 20 orphans and vulnerable children living in our rescue center in Kibera - one of Africa's largest slums
