We believe that every child possesses the potential for growth, healing, and transformation. We recognize that children and youth in conflict with the law are not defined by their past actions but by their capacity for change.

Skill Development

The skills include:
• Visual and Performing Arts.
• Digital and Financial literacy
• Practical skills like Cooking and Baking to build connections and income.
• Linkages to other Opportunities.

Partnership and Community

We collaborate with skilled individuals, families, and stakeholders, to prepare the children and youths for a successful transition back into the community.

Parent-Child Skill exchange

We focus on repairing family relationships through workshops and shared skill learning. Parents and children work together to set goals for better communication and growth.

What we do

We aim to create an environment where children and youths are supported to be confident and capable members of the community

Visual and Performing Arts

Visual and Performing Arts

Involving children at the Kisumu remand facility in visual and performing arts to build self-awareness, help them cope with mental trauma and adjust to their social environment.

Digital and Financial Literacy

Digital and Financial Literacy

We equip youths with essential computer and financial literacy skills to boost their employability, and entrepreneurial skills, enabling them to thrive in the digital age and attract broader audiences.

Reunification

We strengthen family bonds through workshops, shared skill-building, and goal-setting for better communication. We also offer support youths transitioning to independence or safe environments.

Our Campaign

We are having a crowdfunding campaign on the first step of Project Okiri, Visual Arts. 

Project Activities will focus on building self-awareness, helping them cope with the mental challenges and adjust to their social environment. During this stage, they will also have a way of telling their personal stories through performing arts.
