Family-based care

Photo: SOS Archives

SOS Children's Villages is convinced that children can only develop to their full potential if they have a supportive and protective family environment. This is why SOS Children's Villages offers family-based care for children who have lost their parents or who cannot be raised in their biological family. This care takes each individual child's past, needs and abilities into account.

Stable, reliable relationships and individual support for children until they become young adults are the most important elements of the care.

The SOS Children's Village

SOS Children's Villages offers a new home for children who cannot grow up in their biological family or who are either unlikely or unable to return to their families. The SOS Children's Village model is in place in over 130 countries. This form of care is providing a family-based environment for the children. More...

Youth care

One of the most important phases in the care of children and young people is when they move from an SOS Children's Village to an SOS Youth Facility. This is normally a critical stage for young adults, but it is even more of a strain for children at the SOS Children's Villages because in most cases they had traumatic experiences of separation at an early age.
