Family-Based Alternative Care
The SOS Children's Villages Uzbekistan provides alternative care in a family setting for children who have lost their parents or cannot live with their biological family. SOS families provide stable, secure and loving care for children. SOS family care has been successfully operating in 136 countries for more than 70 years.
SOS Children's Villages Uzbekistan provides alternative care in three regions: 14 SOS family houses were built in Tashkent, 13 SOS family houses in Samarkand, and 6 SOS family houses integrated into communities were organized in Urgench, where SOS families live in the neighbourhood with other families.
