The article addresses the critical issues surrounding state policy in the prevention and rehabilitation of child neglect and homelessness in Kazakhstan, offering recommendations for safeguarding children's rights and evaluate the efforts of the scientific and organizational centre focused on the psychosocial needs of children and families. Additionally, the article explores the legal protections available to children without parental care in Kazakhstan, including various forms and objectives of these protections. Kazakhstan's adherence to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and its recommendations are highlighted. Significant concern is the shortage of specialists in regional departments dedicated to child protection, which hinders the ability to effectively monitor and support at-risk children, identify the root causes of their situations, and advocate for their rights in court. To address these challenges, it is suggested a comprehensive approach involving all sectors of society, with a particular emphasis on the role of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in promoting social stability. The collaboration between the state and NGOs is based on principles of equal partnership, which is essential for ensuring the protection of children's rights, enhancing communication with the public, and engaging various societal structures, including both governmental and non-governmental organizations, in efforts to support children.
