Shelter for child survivors of abuse in Malaysia

Organization information

Women's Aid Organisation (WAO)

Location: Petaling Jaya, Malaysia

Summary

The Child Care Centre is a support facility for the children of our former Refuge residents who are domestic violence survivors. They have difficulty in finding reliable childcare while they restablish their careers. We help to place their children in the CCC temporarily upon the mother's request. We ensure they get access to education and empower them to become resilient survivors. They are given specialised care by a social worker and child-minders. We sheltered a total of 37 children in 2015.
