REACH, Cross International and ESPWA

Photos of two REACH building teams working on assembling panels which will become the walls and roofs of the girls' homes.  This is exciting for our young men as the hope is this training will lead to permanent jobs which will allow them independence.  The challenge has always been: what happens to the children after they age out of our residential program?  Unemployment is up to 80% in our area so, even if one has a skill (carpentry, plumbing, masonry...), jobs are extremely difficult to come by.  This training is sponsored by Cross International.
