Strategic area · Our work
To connect organisations, reduce duplication and make collective action possible.
At a glance
Partnership and networking are core to child-rights alliances. This strategic area turns parallel projects into coordinated action — referral maps, shared agendas and joint initiatives across the North Rift.
We support our members and partners to sit at one table with a shared child-protection agenda.
Coordination helps families reach the right support without being passed between silos.
The association convenes; members deliver the day-to-day work with children.

Why it matters
When organisations work alone, children fall between mandates. Coordination is how Community Care Alliance–style grassroots groups and protection members meet as one fabric of care.
NORCCAPA holds the table; members own the pathways.

Step 01
Collective progress
01Referral language
Members agree owners and follow-up — placeholders until verified.
Spotlights
Coordination
Member organisations that once worked in parallel began meeting under one agenda. Referral pathways became clearer, overlapping projects were aligned, and frontline workers left with shared tools rather than competing plans.
Collective action
Organisations that once worked side by side began mapping referrals together. Families spent less time being sent between offices, and frontline teams left with a clearer shared pathway.
From the network
