WE are the International Social Service, ISS for short.
Even if in certain countries we are called something else, it doesn’t matter! WE do all we can to protect and support children and families separated by borders.
WE work to safeguard children placed in vulnerable situations or deprived of their families often for reasons they do not fully grasp such as economic and social migration, complex social family problems, neglect, child trafficking and abduction. WE help children to trace their origins and reconnect with their loved ones. WE help with cases of inter country adoption, foster care and placement. WE make sure the law is on the side of children who need it. WE lobby for better care and protection for children and help develop policies aiming just that. WE carry out research and share information about laws and good practice in child protection. WE train professionals, care givers and decision makers. WE do that for more than 90 years now.
El Servicio Social Internacional es una Organización Non Gubernamental fundada en 1924, compuesta por una red del 120 entidades nacionales que protegen a los niños y niñas y a las familias confrontadas a problemas sociales complejos ligados a la migración.
El SSI es un actor omnipresente en el ámbito de la protección y del bienestar del menor, ayudando alrededor de 75 000 familias cada año en todo el mundo. Los proyectos de formación, la promoción y el desarrollo de las políticas y de la búsqueda a favor del respeto de los derechos del menor constituyen una prioridad para esta ONG.
