Programs | Family Unit
The family unit provides full-time care for children who want to be reintegrated into the public school system, but cannot stay with their families due to domestic violence, poverty, lack of schools in the provinces, or death of the parents. It offers a loving and nurturing home environment for growth, values and development. We encourage the children to keep close contact with members of the family or extended family - when the situation permits it - via frequent phone calls and visits to the family during holidays. The staff provides an environment that promotes learning by helping the children do their homework after school or vocational training.
