Scopul Asociaţiei „Tzuby’s Kids” este ca fiecare copil să beneficieze de o familie fie prin prevenirea avortului şi a abandonului, fie prin sprijinirea reintegrării copiilor în familii biologice, a integrării în familia extinsă, a plasamentului familial, a asistenţei maternale şi a adopţiei.
Acolo unde nu există altă posibilitate de intervenţie, scopul nostru este dezvoltarea durabilă a copiilor instituţionalizaţi, aflaţi în risc sau dificultate, precum şi a tinerilor care ies din sistemul de protecţie sau care sunt în situaţie de risc şi dificultate prin oferirea de suport în vederea recuperării fizice şi psiho-emoţionale, a dezvoltării vocaţionale şi a integrării sociale.

It is difficult for us today to celebrate the International Day of Children Rights
It is difficult for us today to celebrate the International Day of Children Rights when children are held in the protection system for 7.5 years (on average) . If one child leaves the system (by reintegration or adoption) in 2-3 years, another has no chance of leaving the system until aging out. It is difficult for us today…

We are celebrating 3 years of Tzuby’s Kids support groups!
3 years ago we started support groups for adoptive and foster parents at Tzuby’s Kids. We shortly realized that we need to work in parallel with the adopted children, so Paul Dîrmon, our psychologist, assessed their symptomatology and prepared therapeutic interventions in parallel with the parent support group. During these 3 years, we had the pleasure…
