It is hoped that the peace process will be in effect so that the school's centenary celebration in November 2000 will take place at its historic home. The United Methodist Church in Sierra Leone also operates Kissy Women's Training Centre in Freetown. Established in 1975, the center is for girls unable to participate in the mainstream educational system because of Teenage pregnancy, Neglect or lack of ability, Lack of funds for school fees, and Lack of access to formal education because parents could not afford or did not see any reason to send girls to school. At Kissy Women's Training Centre, which is in the east end of Freetown, students learn skills that make them more productive in society and that enhance their self-esteem. Curriculum and activities at the center include craft technology and practical skills, such as gara dying, needlework, dressmaking, soap-making, calculation, adult literacy, peace education, human behavior and relationships, and religious and moral education.
Trainees receive certificates on completion of the two-year program.
The center was damaged during the war and most of the working tools stolen by rebels in January 1999. Despite the damage, the center is operating today with more students than ever before. Properties were looted and damaged and trainees had to flee to safety. It is hoped that these centers will be rehabilitated and reopened soon. Youth leadership Scholarship opportunities for youth and young adults have been scant because of the war.
