Kidz at Heart International

KidZ at Heart International avoids the unintended consequences that result from well-intentioned international children's programs by equipping local leaders to work with the children of their own communities using the resources readily available to them. By doing this, we avoid creating dependency on western resources, we leave local leaders with skills they can continue using and reproduce in others, and we lift up those most likely to impact children - the families and church leaders who love them and live with them daily. The unique KidZ at Heart training plan has been used to train children's ministry workers in over 50 countries, including the U.S. and is called Transforming KidZ Ministry Training. In 2022, our national training networks conducted training in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama, Latvia, Uganda, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Lesotho, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan, Qatar, Sudan, and Nepal. Over 1100 participants attending the training around the world with 120 completing all 8 modules of our Transforming KidZ Ministry Training and over 80 completing our Great Trainer Summit.
