Child Friendly Space (CFS) is a place set up for children in crisis, usually after a disaster, emergency or conflict. It addresses both physical and psychosocial needs of children in a stable environment that invites trust. Children are provided the sense of safety, structure and continuity that provides support amidst overwhelming experiences. In the wake of Typhoon Ondoy, World Vision established a total of six (6) CFS in Marikina, Cainta, Rizal, and Pasig including in the ULTRA stadium serving over 4,000 children.

World Vision, along with disaster reduction network partners, urgently calls legislators to pass the Disaster Risk Reduction Management Bill (DRRM). “Our government is set up now to react, not to prepare for, disasters...The DRRM Bill will change that. It will save lives and properties and protect investments," asserts World Vision executive director Elnora Avarientos.
