The Infant Jesus Homes & Children's Centres welcome children from low income families, and priority is given to children who need protection; children facing emotional crisis or are otherwise , at risk. Children come from families where they are often the witnesses of violence or the victims of abuse and neglect. There are also children who parents suffer from poor physical and mental health and need support to provide care for their children. The children coming to the programmes at the different Centres are given support, care, therapy, social physical and academic activities.
