Alternative Care
Programme

Under this programme SOS Children’s Villages provide a home for children who have lost parental care within SOS Children’s villages.

We have more than 27 years of experience in offering long term alternative care based on family-like care model, which we call SOS family care. We also provide other alternative forms of care such as foster care.

We believe that, whenever possible, children should grow up with their biological families. Despite the best efforts of authorities and SOS family strengthening, family breakdown is sometimes unavoidable. If it is in the best interest of a child to return to the family of origin, we actively support and facilitate process.

The SOS Children’s Villages is, at its core, a community of loving, stable families; each village consist of 10 to 15 family houses. All the children and young people in SOS families have access to quality education at all levels.
