Thank you for your interest in supporting the Safe AI for Children Alliance.

By helping people find and use our guidance, advocating for stronger protections, or supporting the work financially, you can contribute to protecting children as AI develops.

Most of the actions below can be taken independently, through your own networks, work, or everyday decisions, without contacting SAIFCA first.

Share guidance with people who can use it

Our free resources help parents, carers, educators, and other professionals understand AI-related risks and take practical steps to protect children.

You can help this information reach people who need it by:

• Suggesting a relevant guide for a school newsletter, parent group, or professional network.
• Sharing resources with colleagues, safeguarding leads, or organisations working with children.
• Including links in an existing resource collection or training session.
• Drawing on our guidance or campaigns in your own writing or speaking, such as an article, a letter to a newspaper, or a professional event.

Our resource hub brings together guidance for families and schools, alongside information about SAIFCA’s work.

Please link to the original page wherever possible so readers can find the current version, and credit SAIFCA when quoting or drawing on our material.

Put the work to use

Our resources can help inform decisions and discussions you are already involved in.

For families, this might mean using a guide to discuss AI with a child or raise a concern with their school. People working with children can draw on relevant guidance when reviewing safeguarding arrangements, considering an AI product, or discussing how to protect children’s relationships and development.

If you work in policy, research, or advocacy, our Non-Negotiables framework can inform consultation responses and proposals for enforceable protections.

If our work has informed a safeguarding change, organisational policy, consultation response, or parliamentary discussion, we would welcome a brief account at info@safeaiforchildren.org.

Please use the subject line “Using SAIFCA’s work”, avoid identifiable information about children, and indicate whether we can mention the example publicly. These accounts help us understand how the work is being used and demonstrate its value to potential funders, although we cannot always acknowledge them individually.

Ask your political representatives to act

Families and schools cannot be expected to compensate for unsafe technologies. Governments and technology providers must take responsibility for preventing harm.

Our Non-Negotiables campaign calls for three minimum protections:

• AI systems must never create or facilitate sexualised images of children.
• AI systems must never cultivate, exploit, or sustain emotional dependency in children.
• AI systems must never encourage or facilitate children to harm themselves or others.

You can ask your political representatives to support these protections and the legislation, independent scrutiny, and enforcement needed to put them into practice.

Our letter template provides a starting point. Adapt it to your circumstances and country, explain why you are concerned, and ask what specific action your representative is willing to take.

Support effective controls on frontier AI

Children’s safety depends on essential services and the wider society in which they grow up. Decisions about the most powerful AI systems must account for risks to these foundations, alongside harms from the products children encounter.

SAIFCA’s public statement supports A Call for Control of Frontier AI Models and calls for children’s rights, safety, and long-term interests to be central to taking its proposals forward.

You can help by sharing our statement with organisations and professional contacts working on AI policy, children’s rights, or safeguarding, and by raising it in relevant discussions. This can strengthen support for effective, enforceable controls and help ensure that children’s needs inform decisions about safeguards and whether development or deployment should proceed.

SAIFCA also examines catastrophic AI risks as part of its wider work on children’s protection, with examples and discussion of the uncertainties.

Help sustain our independent work

SAIFCA is a small, founder-led organisation that remains independent of technology company funding. Financial support enables us to keep guidance freely available and sustain the research, communication, and policy engagement behind our work.

Funding also provides the time needed to follow through on opportunities to influence protective action, addressing present-day harms and wider risks to children’s lives and futures.

You can help by making a donation, sharing our work with a potential supporter, or suggesting an introduction to a trust, foundation, or individual interested in funding these priorities.

Our strategy and priorities explain where we are concentrating our efforts and how further support would help.

Have a specific opportunity in mind?

We welcome enquiries about funding, relevant policy opportunities, media coverage, or distributing our existing resources through an organisation or professional network.

Introductions to people working on relevant decisions in government, parliament, regulators, or international bodies can also be helpful. Please contact us before making an introduction, explaining what the person is working on and why you think the connection would be useful, so we can assess whether we have the capacity to follow up.

For these enquiries, please email info@safeaiforchildren.org with a brief explanation of the opportunity, any relevant timing, what you would need from SAIFCA, and any practical support you could provide.

We are very grateful for offers of time and expertise, but we are not currently accepting volunteer applications or unsolicited guest articles. If we seek support with a defined task, we will share the details through our updates.

You are welcome to share our public resources and campaign links without asking permission first. Where necessary, please make clear that you are acting independently, and do not imply that SAIFCA endorses a particular policy, product, or service unless we have expressly agreed to that endorsement.
