The local partner organization for this project is the Jvari Community Education Center.

The project aims to improve the social functioning of 120 vulnerable families with children living in the Tsalenjikha municipality, specifically in Jvari town and the village of Potskhoetseri. It also seeks to strengthen local government and non-governmental organizations working in the field of child welfare, to support the enhancement of the family support system within the Tsalenjikha municipality.

The project plans to collaborate with six public schools operating within the Tsalenjikha municipality to promote awareness of children’s rights, including protection from violence.
