HOME VISITS
In January we spent time visiting the homes of each person that is involved in the program. In these visits we learn more about their needs, culture, and customs. The daily visits allow us the chance to participate in their day-to-day activities, helping us learn the best ways to manage a Community Center in the community of Chajul.
