Welcome to CYC-Net

Whether you are a professional or a student in a modern city, or a care worker in a remote isolated countryside, access to this valuable collection of material is unrestricted. CYC-Net has always been, and will remain, entirely open source and free to the end user.

But it costs money to keep CYC-Net running.

We rely entirely on voluntary Subscriptions, Donations and Advertising revenue

We invite fellow Child and Youth Care organizations, agencies, colleges, universities and individuals to share this responsibility with us, so that your staff/student body (and through them all of the children) may derive the benefit. Please help by "playing fair" and supporting CYC-Net, especially if your organisation or academic institution makes use of the resources on CYC-Net. See here for a listing of supporting organisation and here on how to help us.

Anyone may use and distribute materials found on this site. When doing so, please acknowledge the source as 'The International Child and Youth Care Network @ www.cyc-net.org'

For materials found here as cited from other sources, permission must be sought from the original creator of the works.
