Training for YouthImproving life skills for the youth
Because of the disadvantages they suffer as children, many Vietnamese teenagers need to confront and overcome challenges in their lives and deal with conflict and decision making sometimes on their own. This misleading life orientation while providing survival skills does not allow them to see beyond what they do on a daily basis and limits their personal development. For children in these situations it can turn to involvement in criminal activities such as thieving and prostitution to obtain more money or drugs and alcohol to forget.
All of these activities can expose them to the prison system and sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV. Children need to be given opportunities to see the bigger picture of life, to realize their own potential and here at VFCD we try to be the artist that paints the picture.
