Women's Social Work — Quinigua
Dominican Republic (Santiago)
The social work site focuses on supporting, encouraging and equipping young women and girls in our communities. By teaching biblical principles concerning self-confidence, responsibility, sexual purity, wise decision-making, and character development, women are given purpose and identity as they learn about their true source of hope and joy. Our "Madres y Bebés" program is an educational program designed to inform, equip and disciple young mothers. Participants can expect to walk alongside young women, who are often facing challenging circumstances, through different stages of development in pregnancy and throughout the first year of their baby's life. Participants can expect to be challenged in relating to women and girls of another culture and will be challenged to do so in a very personal manner.
