Sharjah 24: The Child and Family Protection Centre of the Sharjah Social Services Department (SSSD) received 729 urgent and non-urgent reports in the first half of this year.

The Child and Family Protection Centre, according to Amina Al-Refai, Centre’s director, provides specialised psychological support for abused children and those who have ended up losing social care through assessment, counselling, and rehabilitation programmes with the goal of erasing the effects of abuse, treating their psychology, and changing their behaviour.
