Saffron Safeguarding and Child Protection Centre (Saffron SCP Centre)
SaffronSDGF has honoured a major recommendation from the SNC Professional and Social Networking Forum Report; by setting up the Saffron ‘SAFEGUARDING AND CHILD PROTECTION CENTRE’ (Saffron SCP Centre)’ (Child Abuse Referrals, Case Assessments, Early Intervention Services for Children, Families and Professionals across Nigeria)
This centre takes referrals via phone calls, faxes, emails, or in person on concerns of maltreatment, neglect and all forms of child abuse. Each enquiry / referral will be investigated by our assessment team, with further actions taken by Saffron or signposted to an appropriate agency/ organisation best suited to address the issue. The Centre works to form better synergy, with legislative stakeholders, gender units and family service units in police stations to better support victims of abuse and in prosecuting perpetrators. The Saffron SCP Centre opening brochure will be attached to this document. Owing to the fact that 70% of our consultants are Nigerians, we understand and are able to work with cultural barriers, norms, myths, stereotypes, religious beliefs and traditions, working on a model that looks into the family structure:- what works well, what doesn’t work well (best practice). Raising Standards, Protecting Children and Improving Lives for Better Outcomes. Best wishes
