I just found out where I will be helping at all summer. I will be teaching English and assisting teachers at:
CEIFAR was founded in 1994 as part of the initiative of a nurse, Simone Alice Debounck. It is a Non-Governmental Organization located in the neighborhood Tancredo Neves in the city of Salvador.
The main objective is to improve the quality of life by focusing on education and family health at a community level. CEIFAR takes 326 children aged from 3 to 16 years old.
The program prioritizes families in the neighborhood and works with the community in a holistic and integrated way. The group evaluates the needs of the families and plans meetings and orientation session on sexuality, education, and leisure activities. These programs help to promote a positive perspective within the community and raise the standard of living.
The group promotes the nuclear family and education for young people of the community.
In the last 10 years the organization has trained educators and community leaders with the goal of preserving family life.
