Welcome to Children in Northern Ireland (CiNI)

CiNI is the regional umbrella organisation for the children’s sector in Northern Ireland. Our vision is to make Northern Ireland a society where all children are valued, treated fairly and are able to flourish. Our mission is to put children at the centre of policy making.

Who We Are

A Day of Reflection

CiNI are working in collaboration with Healing Through Remembering to promote the Day of Reflection - an inclusive and positive event held on the 21 June each year that emphasises a commitment to a peaceful new society.

What is the Day of Reflection?

Petition: Support the Children's Bill

We have started a campaign in support of Steven Agnew's Private Member's Children's Bill. The Bill seeks to place a Statutory Duty to Cooperate on Government to work together to deliver children's services.
