Vocational Training
We implement effective vocational training programs that empower individuals to become self-sufficient, provide for the needs of their families, and to become leaders in their communities, faith groups, and occupations.
Vocational Training with The Fix Ministry
Research has shown that academic and social achievement often serves as protective factors against drug and alcohol abuse. Inversely, those individuals who have low academic or social achievement are at high risk of developing a problem with drugs or alcohol.
With committed staff and business partners, we implement effective vocational training programs that empower individuals to become self-sufficient, provide for the needs of their families, and to become leaders in their communities, faith groups and occupations. The vocational training is one of several reasons why The Fix Ministry has been and continues to be so successful.
