New Horizon Family
A way out for street children
Love. Protection. Care. Trust. These are the fundamental characteristics of family. When we began our street work, it was our aim to provide street children with a loving family home. And at New Horizon Family, we’ve done exactly that.
HistoryThe New Horizon Family Home (NHF) has a seven year history, it was founded back in 2011 and currently has a capacity of 25 children, all boys ranging from ages, 9-14. The boys are currently enrolled in the nearby St. Francis of Assisi school.

Philosophy
The home is also based on a philosophy of trauma informed principles and goals for children, with the aim of helping them overcome their past and make peace with it, provision of education and training to prepare them for life as adults and a restoration of dignity to them and their families and communities.
