Our Vision
A society free from drug and substance abuse where all individuals live with dignity, free from harm, and are empowered to achieve their full potential in every aspect of life.

Enhance and strengthen efforts to end drug and substance abuse at every level.
Raise awareness of the harmful impact of drug abuse by encouraging open, inclusive and informed discussion at the community, local, national and international level.
Facilitate learning and coordination between organisations working to prevent and respond to drug and substance abuse.
Mobilise all necessary policy, financial and other support to end drug and substance abuse.

Our History
BoyChild Kenya was founded in 2023 by a group of committed individuals determined to address the growing crisis of drug and substance abuse in Kenya. Motivated by the urgent need to confront the social, health, and economic harms caused by substance use, the founders set out to build a collaborative movement that promotes dignity, equity, and opportunity for all people.
Since its founding, BoyChild Kenya has evolved into a national platform that supports prevention, recovery, education, and advocacy efforts to end drug and substance abuse across all communities.
Rev. Felix is the BoyChild Kenya champion and advocates to end drug and substance abuse and promote the wellbeing, rights, and dignity of all individuals.
