The Kurasini National Children’s Home was established in Tanzania in 1966 by an NGO and wend under government management in 1968. It takes care of abandoned children, children whose parents are in prison, disabled abandoned children picked from roadsides and orphans. The home is expected to provide all basic needs of these children but the center receives very small budgets from the government. Currently there are 93 children (38 female and 55 male) aged between 2 and 22 years. The home has family reunification programmes; resettlement programmes for the youth; foster care and adoption programmes.
