Alternative Care Thailand
Active
Alternative Care Thailand (ACT) is a group of NGOs and consultants committed to seeing all children in Thailand growing up in safe and nurturing families. ACT is a subgroup of the Convention on the Rights of the Child Coalition Thailand (CRCCT) which was formed in 2015.
The aim of the project is to strengthen the Alternative Care Thailand network and its efforts to advocate and implement care reform in Thailand, to support the right of every child to live in a family and community and promote quality alternative care.
The Martin James Foundation has partnered with ACT by funding its annual retreats and quarterly in-person meetings.
