Counsellors

 

In a major breakthrough amongst the Sikligar youth, ALHF has pioneered the Sikligar Youth Leadership Training programme. As part of the programme, these youth are enrolled as students in undergraduate studies, wherever possible in the field of Social work, trained in computing, hand-writing and English writing and speaking skills. Significantly, a few years back, these youth had abandoned studies and were either whiling away their time or were underemployed with their fathers or uncles in the limited ironsmith work that they could manage.

Pursuing their education part-time, these youth undergo basic training as counsellors, guiding and mentoring students on a day-to-day basis at the Learning Centres of A Little Happiness Foundation. Being their constant companions, they inspire children and also impart ethical and education training in person and through use of laptops and projectors.

All these counsellors put in hard work away from their habitat to manage both their personal education as well as students in their ALHF Centres.
