As part of the process of de-institutionalization in the Republic of Georgia, the Tbilisi Infant House has a shelter for single and vulnerable mothers and children. The shelter is a joint project between Everychild, UNICEF and World Vision.

The groundbreaking PIAD project, a partnership between World Vision, UNICEF, EveryChild and the Georgian Ministries of Health & Education aims to prevent infants and children from being abandoned, create alternatives to institutions and develop policies to create and sustain a social network system throughout Georgia.

More on the shelter can be read here and here.
