Hello, Ugochukwu. I enjoyed your video slide show. Greetings from Baltimore, Maryland USA.
Is your program targeted toward or designed in any way specifically for young men at risk? Or is your program designed to serve young women as well? Are young women at risk of the same kinds of troubles in Ajegunle as young men? If not, what are the differences? Are boys subject to different expectations than girls? Do boys have the same kinds of social supports as girls have?

Generally, young women and men do not have the same kind of needs and expectations. In Ajegunle - the current location of the project, the major issues are self development and economic empowerment. Since our solution seek to ameliorate the core problem which cut across gender needs and expectations, we can gladly say that it is specifically designed for young people at risk - men and women inclusive.
