Training for Youth with Disabilities in Brazil

The Partnership for Opportunities in Employment trough Technology in the Americas -POETA- understands and works on the challenges young people face in order to develop their professional skills needed to enter the job market in Brazil.

Thanks to your support, our young participants have been able to continue their education to build a better future. As you know, our partner AVAPE (http://www.avape.org.br/portal/) provides the infrastructure and the necessary personnel to run a sophisticated and complete educational program. AVAPE ensures the sustainability of the center and of the different projects to guarantee the impact in the community.  Their support allows people like Natalia Beatriz dos Santos to create new dreams and have better quality of life.

Natalia is a 17 year old that became part of POETA in August, 2012 through the AVAPE learning program. Her process was focused in obtaining IT skills such as how to use Word, Excel among others. A software donation by Microsoft mad this possible. Natalia also participated in the job readiness training program which she just finished with an honor mention. Finally, she finished her training process with the course “personal finance” that is focused in providing the skills to create a basic financial planning based on real personal situations and to provide solutions for the participant and their family.

The POETA center provided Natalia with the knowledge and skills through accessible technology and curricula and trained her on the importance of saving money, creating a budget and the ability to analyze her financial situation, strengthening her professional, personal and family life.

The POETA Program has opened more than 161 centers in Latin-American and has provided more than 103,000 participants with the opportunity to develop different skills that have allowed them to change their life and assume new roles in their communities and environments.

Thanks to your help, The Trust for the Americas has trained more that 379 youth in Brazil and we extend an invitation to why kindly continue supporting our efforts to bring more and new opportunities for the youth in Latin-American and the Caribbean.

Thanks again for supporting our cause!
