The Public Health Foundation of Georgia (PHF) established in 1999 protects the rights of children to freedom from all forms of maltreatment. To this end, PHF employs child-centered and multi-disciplinary approaches to prevention, protection and rehabilitation of children from abuse and neglect. 

• Protects the rights of children to life, health, welfare, development and equality
• Ensures that children are brought up in a safe and peaceful environment that respects children’s dignity and autonomy
• Meets the wants of children who are in need of care and protection by bringing their voices to policy and decision-makers
• Builds support on children's strengths and upholds unambiguously the “do no harm” principle
• Supports child and youth participation and takes into account their views in program, planning and implementation processes.
