For over 30 years, we have been protecting children from violence and sexual abuse. We provide children and their caregivers with support, as well as professional psychological and legal assistance. We teach adults how to respond wisely and effectively to violence against children, and what to do when they suspect a child is being harmed. We support and engage parents in raising children with love and respect. We also work to influence Polish law to ensure it best protects the interests of the child. Every child deserves a childhood free from violence!
