Summary:

This report is compiled by CHI and member helplines. It recommends the national helpline be accessible to all children, particularly those disadvantaged, and that it needs to be further supported by the government. It describes the current status of the helpline and opportunities for collaboration with NGOs and the government to improve the helpline’s activities to reach out to more children.
