Rutanang Life Skills
Recently we did a group work programme, in Extention 7, empowering adolescents who are infected and affected by HIV/AIDS. The aim was to prepare them for the possible death of their parents/caregivers and to empower them to cope with life.
The following themes were discussed:
- Healthy Life Styles
- Identity and self Esteem
- Roles and relationships
- Effective communication
- Assertiveness and conflict management
- Coping with stress and emotions
- Orientation & implications of AIDS
- Spirituality, death as reality and bereavement
- Financial security and planning for the future
The Hope Again foundation applied for funds to be able to continue with this helpful programme.
