This case study documents the journey of Okot, one of many children in the Kakuma camp in Kenya, living with relatives. There are over 8,000 unaccompanied and separated children living in the Kakuma and Kalobeyei camps, the majority of whom are in kinship care (children cared for by relatives or friends of the family). These children are assessed and provided with case management support where necessary. Children in kingship care are also supported through regular follow-up visits from child protection volunteers and village child protection committees.
