Steps

  1. Call the toll-free line 1195, or the Anti-FGM Board on 0703 764 126.
  2. Or report in person to the police, the chief or assistant chief, a children's officer, a probation officer, or a gender and social development officer.
  3. You can also report a case through the Pasha app, which the Board promotes on its website.
  4. For other help or follow-up, email info@antifgmboard.go.ke, or visit the Board at Railways Headquarters, Workshop Road, Nairobi.

Watch out

  • You do not have to give your name. The Board accepts anonymous reports, calls and SMS, and the service is free.
  • Consent is no excuse. FGM is a crime even if the girl or woman agreed to it.
  • Taking a girl out of Kenya, or bringing one in, to have FGM done is also a crime.

Who can apply

  • Anyone who knows that FGM has happened, is happening or is planned. In fact, failing to report it is an offence.
