The purpose of this study is to find out government policies in overcoming violence against children in the midst of the covid 19 pandemic. This type of research is an approach that is carried out by literature studies in scientific journals, books, documents, websites, and other sources. The results showed that the government through the ministry of women's empowerment and child protection (PPPA) issued several policies in the form of the Joint Movement to Take Care of Our Families, Optimizing the role of Community-Based Integrated Child Protection (PATBM) activists, Opening telephone service for women and children's friends (SAPA) 192, and Issuing Government Regulation (PP) Number 78 of 2021 concerning Special Protection for Children.
