The International Child and Youth Care Network (CYC-NET) is a registered non-profit and public benefit organisation in South Africa and Not-For-Profit Corporation in Canada running in terms of its own Constitution. CYC-Net is also approved by the South African Revenue Service to be exempt from paying taxes and duties [Section 10(1) (cN) of the Act] as well as to receive tax-exempt donations.

CYC-Net is the coming together of people, ideas, critical thought and literature from the broadest possible spectrum in the Child and Youth Care field. It's a place to share, a place to hang out, a place to meet, and a place to learn.

CYC-Net has often been described as the most valuable Child and Youth Care resource in the world and the greatest social innovation in the field of Child and Youth Care for the past 30 years. It serves thousands of unique users every year and has hundreds of thousands of visits each year.

One of the pillars on which CYC-Net was founded is that it is provided OPEN ACCESS to the end-user. Advertising is limited on CYC-Net. It's not that we don't like advertising, but we like to think that "a little goes a long way".

Our People

We run a tight ship! CYC-Net employs a single member of staff. Everything else that CYC-Net provides is achieved largely through volunteer efforts and goodwill from individuals, organisations and associations in our established networks. So when you access CYC-Net, please pause and think about how others have contributed to your continuing professional development through these efforts.

CYC-Net is Provided Open-Access

All people interested or involved in the field of Child and Youth Care are welcome to participate in its discussions and make use of the web site.

CYC-Net was developed with the intention of supporting those who work professionally with children and youth. Often, these people are isolated, unsupported and underfunded, in geographically underserved and dispersed parts of the world, where access to information and low income levels frequently limits access to information. It is only through the voluntary subscriptions by universities, colleges, training facilities, service organisations, associations and individuals that CYC-Net can continue to provide this valuable resource serving the learning needs of the wider Child and Youth Care community.

Those who provide a voluntary contribution/subscription are listed here.
