Every child deserves a secure home. We work with families to reduce the risk of breakdown that could leave children without parental support. But when children have no access to family, we give them and their siblings a safe home. Each home is headed by a trained caregiver who raises each child with the individual care and attention they need.
We have many village communities around the Uganda providing loving homes for children who have lost parental support, or are at risk of losing it, due to conflict, disease, extreme poverty, abandonment or natural disasters. The children we support have access to medical facilities, and schools, so they can grow up in a safe and supportive environment.
We believe every child should have the opportunity to reach their fullest potential. Working through individual development plans, we offer them the skills and education they need from cradle to career. Our holistic approach ensures the whole person is developed and equipped to join and contribute to their communities, helping them lead fulfilling lives.
Our global presence means we are already in-country when disaster strikes. In emergencies we deliver essential supplies, psycho-social care, family reunion, and safe spaces for children to recuperate. We also ensure communities are given help to rebuild infrastructure and resiliance - empowering families to regain control of their lives after war and disaster.

A child may need more than one kind of support. OCIA's Change A Life pathway brings practical areas of care together around the child, family and community.
The pathway connects learning, health and wellbeing, family stability, social support and future development. Support is shaped by real needs rather than a single fixed intervention.
