Supported supervision to children and adolescents referred from One Stop Crisis Centre (OCMC)
Women and children face gender-based violence (GBV), resulting in physical, sexual, and psychological harm. Due to a lack of unified provisions, addressing GBV has been challenging. The Ministry of Health and Population is tasked with implementing the National Action Plan 2010 by establishing a Hospital-Based One-Stop Crisis Management Center (OCMC).
The children and adolescent survivors of GBV are regularly provided with psychosocial support and interventions by the CAP team.
