EVERY CHILD DESERVES A CHANCE TO COME HOME
In Uganda, thousands of children grow up on the streets—alone, afraid, and forced to survive in conditions no child should face. At STEPS, we believe the street is never a place for a child.
Rooted in Christian compassion, we walk alongside vulnerable children and families to restore safety, dignity, and belonging—one child, one family, one step at a time.

VISION
A nation where no child lives on the streets—and every child grows up in a safe, loving home.

MISSION
To rescue, rehabilitate, reconcile, and resettle vulnerable children into safe homes where they can thrive. Through rehabilitation, education, and vocational training, we help each child heal from trauma, regain dignity, and build a hopeful future.

OUR COMMITMENT TO EVERY CHILD
“You are not alone anymore.”
Our social workers search for family members, conduct home visits, counsel caregivers, and prepare both child and family for long-term reintegration. After resettlement, STEPS continues supporting the child for years—covering school fees, monitoring progress, and offering ongoing emotional care.
Healing takes time. We stay for the journey.
