Vocational Training for Boko Haram Victims
Organization information
ChildVoice
Location: Newmarket, United States of America
Summary
Thousands of war-affected adolescent girls live in IDP camps in northeastern Nigeria. Many of them have been traumatized by violence and enslavement by Boko Haram and other violent insurgent groups, often becoming child-mothers while in captivity. ChildVoice has been providing psychosocial counseling to more than 300 girls, and now seeks to establish vocational skills training programs providing them a pathway out of poverty while helping to support their families and communities.
