We believe that all children have a right to be loved and to be safe from harm. They should have nutritious food, clean water and good healthcare.  They also have a right to education and a right to play – to be children.

​

CLF Uganda currently provides residential care for around 50 children, however we believe that, wherever possible, children should have the right to live with their parents or in family-based care.

​

Children benefit from growing up in a loving family environment, and this is provided wherever possible through reunification, foster care or adoption. 

​

During the process of seeking suitable family care for a child, whether that be with family members, extended family members, foster careers or adoptive parents, the standard of care should be of the highest quality possible, and the children should still have access to the aforementioned love, safety, nutrition, water, healthcare, education and play.

 

Recommendations made by the social workers are made in the best interest of the child, and are reviewed by the Management Committee before their exit plan is finalized.
