If young people are empowered they can change their behaviors positively(ANY BODY CAN CHANGE)

The story is about a young girl who used to stay in one of Kampala slums(Kitamanyangamaba zone).
Hadijah is an orphan whom i met for councelling having been trained by platform for labour Action as a peer educator.She was engaged in dangerous behavour like prostitucy,drug&substance abuse and negative  peer groups when i councelled her about behavioural change she told me that she is involved in prostitucy because the has to get money and look after her old mum.
I continued counselling her until she agreed to join Safe alternatives for Youthts(S.A.F.Y)and she was trained as a peer educator.After two years the S.A.F.Y donors asked for the needy girl and she finished her diploma at Kampala international univercity in 2010.She is now working with S.A.F.Y as a youth cordinator and for appreciation she decided to form a club of young girls living in slam Areas in which she is councelling them.
