PROGRAMS & INITIATIVES
The Tamar Project
Protecting Children. Empowering Young People. Building Safer Communities.
The Tamar Project
The Tamar Project is Juniper Tree’s flagship child protection and abuse prevention initiative. Established in response to the growing concerns of child sexual abuse, domestic violence, bullying, exploitation, and other forms of violence affecting children and adolescents, the Project seeks to educate, empower, and protect young people while creating safer communities.
Named after the biblical Tamar, whose story reminds us of the devastating impact of abuse and the importance of breaking the silence surrounding it, the Project provides age-appropriate education, prevention training, counseling support, and advocacy for children and youth.
Since its inception, the Tamar Project has partnered with schools, teachers, parents, churches, and community leaders to equip young people with the knowledge and skills needed to recognize unsafe situations, protect themselves, seek help when necessary, and support peers who may be experiencing abuse.
Tamar Clubs in Schools
The Project currently operates in schools within the Ejisu Municipality, where students participate in Tamar Clubs that provide:
- Child sexual abuse prevention education
- Healthy relationship and boundary training
- Anti-bullying education
- Online safety and digital citizenship
- Self-esteem and resilience development
- Life skills and leadership training
- Career guidance and mentoring
- Counseling and referral support
- Peer support opportunities
The Tamar Project is built on a simple but powerful belief: every child deserves to grow up safe, valued, protected, and able to reach their God-given potential.
By educating children, equipping adults, and strengthening communities, we are helping to create a future where children can thrive free from abuse, exploitation, and violence.
