Children's well-being is our primary concern. At Small Group Homes, we respect the rights of each child’s right. It is our belief that:
-
Every child should receive loving and nurturing family care, enjoy a happy childhood and be an integral part of a stable family.
-
Children should be protected from all forms of abuse, negligence and exploitation.
-
Children should be able to play an active role in decisions affecting their own lives and participate in their communities and societies in preparation for responsible adulthood.
-
Children should fully develop their potential through education, play, information and cultural activities.
We aim to provide a loving and caring family environment for our children and teenagers where they can understand more about themselves, be assured of their self-worth, establish personal goals and develop their own strengths and interpersonal skills. We hope that they can be responsible, respectful and confident individuals when they leave our small group homes either to reunite with their birth families, or to join their adoptive families of to live independently.
