Press statement on the fire incident at Utumishi Academy Senior School- Gilgil @hannawcheptumo @CarrenAgengo #sdcsinaction #ChildProtectionKE #childrenfirst

In a reply by the Gender CS we have learnt that the government hosts 45,000 children in its facilities. But for a parent looking for a missing child, navigating this system can feel like a black hole. We are calling on the public: Have you tried reporting a missing or abandoned child recently? We want to know: 1️⃣ Did you get a helpful response, or did the trail go cold? 2️⃣ What bottlenecks did you face at the police station or local children’s department? 3️⃣ Did anyone follow up with you? If you are currently searching for a child, keep shouting report As soon as possible . Report to the authorities, use the 116 helpline. #ChildProtectionKe

An alarming 10,000 children are reported missing or abandoned cumulatively, yet public policy continues to move toward closing children's homes without providing a robust, well-funded alternative safety net. If the government cannot protect its most vulnerable, where is the accountability? What concrete resources are being allocated to child protection, tracking, and family reintegration? We cannot remain silent while thousands of children disappear. A budget that does not prioritize human rights and social protection is a budget that fails the nation. #BudgetAccountability #ChildProtectionKe #SocialAccountability #TISA #TheSituationRoom

The Principal Secretary for Children Services, CPA Carren Ageng’o, held talks with the Kenya Film Classification Board led by Acting CEO Nelly Oluoch to discuss ways of collaboration on Child Online Protection and safe media consumption. During the engagement, Ms. Oluoch elaborated on the mandate, regulatory functions, and ongoing programmes being implemented by the Board in promoting responsible media consumption and protecting public morality within the digital and broadcast space. A joint committee was established to drive implementation of key interventions aimed at enhancing child safety in the digital space and promoting responsible. The meeting stood as a strong affirmation that protecting children in the digital age requires sustained collaboration, proactive governance, and a united commitment across institutions to ensure that every child grows within a safe, dignified, and nurturing information environment. #sdcsinaction #ChildProtectionKE

This is a child protection crisis. We need stronger community reporting, more school-based awareness, and parents who are willing to have the hard conversations. Silence protects perpetrators, not our girls. #ChildProtectionKE #EndTeenPregnancy

It's tomorrow let's join the conversation! #childprotectionKE #sdcsinaction

The CS @hannawcheptumo, PS @CarrenAgengo and HOD's from Children Services today appeared before the Departmental Committee on Social Protection of the National Assembly of Kenya chaired by to deliberate on the 2026 Budget Policy Statement (BPS). #childprotectionKE #SDCSinAction

Today the Commission joined partners at the National Learning Convening on the Prevention & Response to Harmful Practices — leaders, advocates and frontline workers took stock: wins, gaps and the road ahead for child protection in Kenya. We celebrate legal and policy milestones — from the Prohibition of FGM Act and stronger marriage laws to the National Prevention & Response Plan — that have helped shift norms and sharpen systems. Yet data show violence and harmful practices persist; without sustained, ring-fenced financing and county-led implementation those gains risk flattening into rhetoric. Frontline responders — social workers, health teams, teachers and community volunteers — are the hinge between policy and a child’s safety. Investing in their training, pay, mental-health support and clear, multi-sector referral pathways must be non-negotiable. National systems like the Child Helpline 116 and strengthened referral networks are vital lifelines, but they need scale, faster data flows and community trust to reach the most vulnerable. We must also confront newer threats — online abuse, trafficking, and climate-driven displacement — by aligning child protection with digital safety, anti-trafficking action and climate resilience planning. The road ahead is clear: finance the plan, fortify the workforce, decentralise solutions to counties, centre children’s voices in design, and measure what matters. Today’s convening gave us the map; now we must walk it — together. #ChildProtectionKE #EndFGM #ProtectChildren #ChildRights #16DaysOfActivism

Every child deserves to be safe, seen, and connected! We’re reminding children to always tell their parent or guardian where they are going and who they are with. #UsimwacheMtotoAtoweke #KeepingChildrenSafe #ChildSafety #ChildProtectionKE #Missing&FoundChildren

Together with @kenya_puppet, we joined the @NCAJ_KE Standing Committee on the Administration of Justice for Children at Mathare Special Training Centre to mark the launch of the National Annual Children Service Month, presided over by PS CPA Caren Angeng’o. #ChildProtectionKE

This case must be handled urgently and lawfully. We call on @ODPP_KE, @DCI_Kenya, and Garissa County authorities to ensure the suspects are arrested and charged without delay. Every child deserves justice. #JusticeForSurvivors #ChildProtectionKE #protectgirlchild

We urgently need a pedophilia offenders database in Kenya! 🚨 This is a criminal offence, yet perpetrators simply relocate from one town to another and continue preying on children. Enough is enough, our children deserve protection, not loopholes. #ChildProtectionKe

Filming or publishing suggestive or sexualized content involving underage boys is a direct violation of the Children Act, the Sexual Offences Act, and international child protection laws, This is a predator hiding behind a camera and a following.#ChildProtectionKE

When we fund children’s services, we don’t just fix systems — we secure our future and economic stability. #ChildProtectionKE #Budgeting4Children #ForEveryChildKE #SocialProtectionKE #ChildrenFirst #InvestInChildren
