We’re a team of expert social workers, therapists, lawyers and judges.

Together, we partner with organisations involved in the care & protection of children.

We provide training, mentoring, consultation and more,

at an accessible cost for as long as our assistance is required.

Why do we do it?

Over the past two decades, we’ve changed the way MiLLiONS of children are protected and cared for.

How has a tiny charity reached millions of children?

SFAC's Cycle of Learning - 1. Understanding the WHAT and the WHY 2. Learning the HOW. 3. Learning to EXCEL. 4. Reviewing progress

We’ve equipped

of child care and protection practitioners using SFAC’s 5 Pillars & 4 Stages of Transformative Child Care Model – practicitioners from over

organisations across more than

countries to better protect and care for children in their regions.

Many of the small, grassroots organisations we work with go on to train others and advocate for change in their countries and regions.

As a result, we’ve worked with governments and judiciaries, resulting in legislative change and complete overhauls of national child care and protection systems in several countries. 

See the changes we’ve contributed to in Paraguay for one example.

Here’s how we equip organisations to give children the best care

Who We’ve Worked With

Below are a few of the organisations SFAC has worked with in the last two decades.

They’re packed full of fun (e.g. quizzes and recipes from around the world),

loads of good news from us and the organisations we partner with,

and there’s always a little something to give you a giggle!

"In need of some Good News & A Giggle?!"

We’ll also occasionally pop into your inboxes with other news (rarely more than 3-4 times a year)

Success! You're on the list.
SFAC training session with Fape in Morocco

Fape has been at the forefront of introducing formal foster care to Morocco. Their programme caught the government’s attention, who’ve asked Fape to lead the way in developing a national foster care programme alongside the necessary legislation to support it. Find out more about the project with Fape.

VCDF works on the border of Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo – an area where children and families are living with the consequences of ongoing conflict and violence. VCDF are developing programmes to support the many child-headed households in a region where resources are extremely limited.
