CACO

The objective of the career counseling class is to identify the career paths of participants, provide technical assistance, direction and links to appropriate resources or institutions to enable them succeed. The program is especially relevant to those determined not to have the inclination for further educational pursuit on academic and/or financial grounds.
ENSTAD
96 hrs
Individuals are endowed differently. People are talented in diverse ways. Our goal in the entrepreneurial skills training and development program is to identify the different talents of participants and to channel such potentials to more rewarding avenues. We organize workshops/seminars, and link participants to appropriate institutions and bodies where their entrepreneurial skills can be fully nurtured for sustainable economic empowerment.
TRASCOPA
The purpose of this program is to guide and assist participants into vocations and colleges appropriate to their needs and qualifications. Linkages to appropriate resources are also provided.
BMMR
This program is especially applicable to youth passing through the juvenile court system, as well as young adults who have veered of course. We provide counseling, training and retraining geared toward behavior modification of such participants, instilling in them a positive attitude to be responsible members of society and to pursue meaningful life goals. Included in this program are anger management, conflict resolution and stress control techniques provided by licensed professionals.
Our work is made possible by caring supporters, many generous corporations, dedicated volunteers and employees around the globe.
