Ending the Silence on Child Abuse Childline Kenya aims to give a voice to every child who is in need of care, support and protection. We give children the opportunity to assert their rights, report and speak out against all forms of child abuse.

We also believe in the importance of putting child abuse on the agenda of politicians, educators and the wider public through a range of workshops, conferences and outreach work.
Mission and Vision Childline Kenya’s Vision:
A society where each child is heard and children’s rights and dignity are upheld at all times

Our Mission:
To promote child rights and enhance opportunities for child protection through the delivery of quality services using ICT innovations

The National Child Helpline 116 Is someone physically, sexually or emotionally abusing you? Do you have problems with your parents, your teachers or your friends? Need someone you can trust to talk to?

Childline Kenya is a non-governmental organisation (NGO) that works in the child protection sector. Childline Kenya’s work represents the resonating message that child abuse and violence against children have no place in our society.  The organisation operates the National Child Helpline 116, Kenya’s only 24-hour, toll-free telephone and web-based helpline for children. We also work with Government, other NGOs and civil society to break the silence on child abuse and create awareness of children’s rights.
