As the COVID-19 pandemic has affected all of our communities in unprecedented ways, we have had to adjust in many different ways to continue providing the same quality care and education to our high schoolers.
Due to schools being closed in Kenya and Zambia, we have been finding innnovative ways to strengthen the academic support we provide our scholars with while they are out of school. For our High School scolars, we are utilizing mobile technology that provides learning materials, quizzes, and a feature to ask teachers questions. We also started individualizing tutoring, group tutoring, and attained textbooks for them in Zambia and Kenya! Our high schoolers are all living together in a safe hostel to support their academic and emotional healing during this time. There, they are developing public speaking skills, improving their leadership skills, and taking up responsibility. We've been impressed and encouraged by their growing leadership!
Our program has allowed us to continue providing the necessary eduation to our scholars so that they are aware of how to prevent sexual abuse, especially during a pandemic.
