The majority of children in Northern Uganda have been deprived of education. We would like to improve the life of these vulnerable deprived and destitute children by supporting and improving their health, welfare and quality of life through education.

Situation
The poorest families in Northern Uganda are trying to recover from a civil war that lasted for over 2 decades by Joseph Kony, (LRA) against the government of Uganda. Children and young people have been deprived from education. Communities were forced to live in camps, most children ended up on streets without life skills. Young people now need to gain new skills to maintain healthy living and knowledge against the spread and impact of HIV & STDs and substance use of drugs through education.
Solution
Our team will reunite these children with their families, give them chance for a brighter future, in which they can gain an education and gradually rebuild their self-esteem. We will enroll children in to formal education and truck their progress and support them in order to prevent any possibility of dropping out. The frequency of substance use among children who come to the Drop-in center at least once a week will be reduced. Develop links to services which provide screening and treatment.
