Embrace Centre Kitale
The first Embrace centre: a safe home environment where street-connected boys are welcomed into care, rehabilitation, discipleship, and a supported journey back to family and community.
About the Centre
The place where the Embrace journey began
Embrace opened its first centre in Kitale in 2015 after the ministry began among street-connected boys in the city.
The Centre serves boys from Kitale and surrounding areas through the same Gospel-centred Four R's pathway shared across Embrace: Rescue, Rehabilitate, Reintegrate, and Redeem.
Residential care provides a safe foundation for education, life skills, counselling, discipleship, and preparation for family reintegration. Follow-up continues after boys return home.
Life at the Centre
Care grows through ordinary days together
Meals, learning, prayer, celebration, practical work, and steady relationships create a daily rhythm in which boys can begin to heal and grow.

Education and Life Skills
Learning support and practical life skills help boys rebuild confidence, develop healthy routines, and prepare for life with family and community.
Counselling and Discipleship
Personal counselling, prayer, Bible teaching, and mentoring support emotional and spiritual healing through the hope of Christ.
The Four R's
One pathway from welcome to home
Each part of the Embrace model supports the same goal: lasting restoration and reconciliation with God, family, and community.

Family reintegration
Care at Kitale is always pointed toward home
The Centre offers safety for a season, while the long-term goal remains a careful return to family and community whenever reintegration is possible. Preparation and follow-up help boys and families keep moving forward together.
