The Foundation’s focus is on protecting children from sexual abuse and supporting those who have been subject to child sexual abuse and exploitation. Childhood supports over 84 programs in 14 countries and hosts four operating offices in Sweden, Germany, Brazil, and the United States. The Sweden office oversees the international program.  World Childhood Foundation USA (Childhood USA) aims to inspire, promote, and develop solutions to end sexual abuse, exploitation, and violence against children in the United States.
