Changing the face of care for vulnerable children: REPSSI certificate course in community-based work with children and youth.pdf

The Regional Psychosocial Support Initiative (REPSSI) reviews their Certificate Course in Community-Based Work with Children and Youth. It responds to a critical regional demand for quality training in child care, and specifically social and emotional (psychosocial) support, child protection and promotion of children’s rights. The Certificate is a standardised, accredited course for East and Southern Africa.

This overview provides information on the course and feedback on the impact it has had for those who have completed the course.
