• UNICEF helps children heal and become more resilient: Community-based, UNICEF-supported mental health and psychosocial programs reach tens of millions of children, adolescents, parents and caregivers in 117 countries every year.
• UNICEF advocates for an inclusive world: UNICEF’s programs reach millions of children with disabilities helping them fulfill their rights — including their right to an education and to fully participate in society.
• UNICEF ensures children and women don't suffer abuse in silence: Many more children and women across 126 countries have safe channels for reporting sexual violence, exploitation and abuse thanks to UNICEF.
• UNICEF empowers children and young people: UNICEF offers innovative tools such as U-Report to help advance youth-led initiatives — including a global movement to combat climate change.
• UNICEF inspires action: UNICEF provides platforms to help amplify young people’s voices, ideas and priorities.
• UNICEF provides many ways for young people in the U.S. to take action:  Through UNICEF Clubs and UNICEF UNITE, adolescents are able to speak out on topics they care about — and get elected officials to listen.
