Core offering

SOS Enfants Parents operates a multidisciplinary team delivering free-of-charge services — prevention, diagnostic assessment, therapeutic treatment, and professional supervision — for children aged 0-18 who are victims of mistreatment (physical, psychological, sexual abuse and severe neglect) and their families within the judicial arrondissement of Liège, division of Verviers. Through its sub-brand Le Berceau, launched in 2020, it additionally provides home-based parental support to vulnerable future and young parents from pregnancy until the child reaches three years of age.

Product overview

SOS Enfants Verviers operates as a single unified service (asbl/nonprofit organization) governed by the decree of May 12, 2004, offering multidisciplinary support for child mistreatment prevention and intervention. The organization encompasses two main offerings: the core SOS Enfants service providing maltraitance (abuse) prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and supervision for children aged 0-18 and their families; and Le Berceau, a specialized parental support sub-brand launched in 2020, which focuses on vulnerable parents during pregnancy and until the child reaches age 3.
