RIYADH — The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has launched a pilot program providing nursery services at the Riyadh Personal Status Court to help children feel safe and welcomed.

The childcare facility is managed by specialists with relevant experience and covers age groups from newborns to nine years old. The pilot program will gradually be applied at personal status courts throughout the Kingdom.

The initiative is one of several steps taken by the ministry to safeguard children, including the recent provision of homely centers, which replaced police facilities for enforcing custody and visitation rulings. — SG
