JOB DETAILS:
Railway Children Africa (RCA) is a subsidiary of Railway Children UK – an international charity that fights for children and youths living and working on the streets (CYLWS). Our work focuses on vulnerable children and youths who live alone and at risk on the streets, where they suffer abuse and exploitation. They run away or are forced to leave their homes where they suffer poverty, violence, abuse and neglect.

They find themselves living on the streets because there is nowhere else to go and nobody to turn to. However, the problems they face on the streets are often even worse than those they endured at home. Every day we fight to change their story. We aim to reach children as soon as they arrive on the streets and intervene before an abuser can, and before they become entrenched in street life.

• Meeting the immediate ne
eds of children on the streets
