Partnerships With Other Orgs

Following up on my earlier post, I also had another challenging experience yesterday. As you know, if you've seen my other posts, I have been working on sewing classes for the people at SAAJ. One of the local partner organizations would like me to help teach lessons for their groups. This has been in discussion for months now, but just recently came to fruition.

Yesterday, after our clean up, we had a group meeting to discuss logistics about getting me to the groups to teach. Naturally, I only understood some of the content of the meeting, so today, I get to discover the rest of the information.

The plan is to teach life skills to young men and women who are considered vulnerable due to HIV, abuse, poverty, lack of education, etc. The DREAMS initiative is designed to address and support this need to help empower youth. I love that I can be a part of this!
