Ensuring continuity of child protection services in Kala-Balge, Damboa, Mafa and Monguno GOALPrime intends to target a total of 6000 individuals: out of which 5600 (60% girls and 40% boys) are children including adolescent girls and boys and those living with disabilities in schools, camps, and host communities. The adult target will be 500 (300 women and 200 men) who will be caregivers to be reached with counseling and positive parenting sessions. A target of 5% of the overall individuals to be reached will be persons living with disability.

The entire 5600 children to be reached will have access to continuous community-based MHPSS. Also, out of the total children target 400 (0.7%) adolescent girls and boys will be reached with life skills education, 200 girls and boys (3.57%) will be provided with case management support 50children (0,89%) formerly associated with the non-state armed groups (CAFAAGs) will be supported with community-based socioeconomic reintegration (vocational skills and micro-enterprise fundamentals) 10 UASCs (0.18%) will be supported with FTR and reunified with their families in collaboration with the social workers of the ministry of women affairs and social development and 30 children (0.54%) with high protection risk or with failed FTR will be placed in appropriate alternative care arrangements.

In schools, the children will be reached through structured recreational activities and creative events such as Interclub and House competitions, child protection awareness, and peer support sessions organized in school clubs and other club activities.
 
Working with the school-based and community-based child protection committees (SBCPCs/CBCPCs) and the School Based Management Committees (SBMCs), GOALPrime will continue to strengthen the child protection mechanisms in both schools and the communities in the target LGAs (Mafa and Monguno, Damboa and Kala-Balge LGAs). GOALPrime will continue to work with all stakeholders in the camps, host communities, and schools to enhance awareness on safeguarding and Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (SEA) and also with the CP and GBV sub-sectors and Partners in Borno as well as the case management task force to develop or update and strengthen the referral pathways in the target LGAs. 

The overall 5800 target beneficiaries (including caregivers and people living with disability) will be reached with awareness raising on GBV prevention, PSEA, positive parenting, and child protection concern risk communication using tools developed by consultants in the GPON Humanity Studio via door-to-door, megaphones, motorized campaigns, and edutainment approaches. Using the community-based PSS as an entry point, GOALPrime will work with the CBCPCs to identify and profile Out of School Children (OOSCs) who in collaboration with Education partners will be enrolled back to school.
All approaches and activities will follow the COVID-19 Prevention and Control measures as provided by World Health Organization (WHO), State Ministry of Health (SMoH), and the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC). GOALPrime will also integrate child-focused risk communication topics of COVID-19 into school club and Inter-House activity topics and themes. GOALPrime will also work with partners of other sectors across target locations and provide them with advice on how to mainstream protection into their interventions. GOALPrime will be sensitive to the protection of the environment and ensure that our approaches and tools do no harm to the environment and the beneficiaries.

GOALPrime, through her NHF-supported Humanity Studio, will also support CP AoR with the designs of the sub-sector's referral pathways, newsletters, advocacy notes, and other relevant resource materials. GOALPrime just wrapped up the implementation of the 2021 Consortium Allocation in Kala-Balge, Mafa, Monguno, and Damboa LGAs in August. This project will support the continuity of CP service provision to the children as well as CP AoR coordination as part of our mandate as Northeast CP AoR co-host organization.
