FCA child center

Child protection support. All in one place.

What is the child center?

When a child needs protection, getting the right help quickly makes all the difference. The Family Care Authority Child Center is Abu Dhabi’s dedicated child protection centre, bringing the services a child and family may need together under one roof.
 
At the Child Center, social workers, mental health professionals, medical staff, police investigators, and legal teams work side by side. Families do not need to repeat their story or move between different locations. One coordinated team supports the child and family from the moment they arrive.

The Child Center is a safe, confidential, and child-friendly space. Every child is treated with dignity and compassion. Families are supported throughout the entire process, — because protecting a child also means supporting the whole family.
