The ISPCC is for children. Our purpose is to listen to them, empower them, strengthen their resilience and enable them to live their best possible lives. The ISPCC provides a range of services directly to children and families and advocates for change to enhance the lives of children in Ireland. The ISPCC’s work is made possible through public and corporate support, as well as funding provided by government agencies for the delivery of specified services. The Childline Listening Service is the national listening service for children and young people in Ireland. It can be reached 24 hours a day, 365 days a year – online, by phone or by text. Our services to children, young people and families also include one-to-one therapeutic support services, guided self-care digital supports and the resilience-building Smart Moves programme for children and young people making the transition from primary to secondary school and more.
