Johannesburg Princess Alice Adoption home

 

Princess Alice Adoption Home (PAAH) – a facility of Johannesburg Child Welfare Society – is situated in Westcliff, Johannesburg, and was founded in 1930 by Princess Alice, one of Queen Victoria’s 35 grandchildren. It was initially started to serve the mining community, so that when one of the girls fell pregnant, she would have a place to “hide” away so as not to bring shame upon her family. Her baby would then be made available for adoption. Our services have since evolved, and we were one of the first centres to cater for other racial and ethnic cultures. Today our primary service is to act as a place of safety to now 30 babies as the Home has recently received an upgrade of capacity from 25 babies to 30 during April 2008. The babies admitted to our care, are mostly from the Johannesburg, Gauteng area. 

Goal:
To provide round-the-clock emotional, physical and health care for approximately 75 babies per annum, who have either been abandoned or consented for adoption.
