Children & Family Wellbeing
Help in our own language
Domestic violence affects one in three Mongolian families (National Center Against Violence of Mongolia), and families who move to the USA often lack the tools and the language to find help. We work in Mongolian, for the Mongolian community, starting in the greater Washington, DC area.
Workshops for adults
Parenting skills, healthy family life and how to prevent domestic violence and child abuse, in our own language.
Safety for children and youth
Sessions on staying safe in the real world and online.
Public awareness
We translate and share educational materials and take them to community events.
Help for victims
With Doorways, an indirect helpline gives emotional and economic support and connects people to local services.
Online child safety
We report groups posting child sexual abuse material or trafficking to the NCMEC CyberTipline.

Guides, help lines and where to report: everything we share is on one page.
Why it matters
Poverty and violence at home take away what every child needs. Our centres give it back: safety, learning and a voice.
What we do
Three ways we protect children
We keep children safe today, teach families and children how to stay safe, and change the rules that let abuse go on.
Prevent
Safe centres in Ulaanbaatar's ger districts give children a warm place to learn and play, and families a place to turn.
Educate
Workshops for parents and online-safety lessons for children, in Mongolia and in Mongolian communities in the USA.
Advocate
Campaigns that change the law: Open Your Eyes made forensic exams free for child victims under 18.
Every gift does all three.
- Three Magic Mongolia centres in Mongolia
- Libraries, ballet, jiu-jitsu, art and science at the centres
- Open Your Eyes: forensic exams are free for child victims under 18
