Our Courses

Our courses are taught in Nepali by native Nepali speakers. Our classes are part-time and allow for students, mothers, and those who may have other jobs to attend. Literacy is not necessary for most of our courses.

Each Career Course includes 3-4 months of in-class study, off-site hands-on learning, internship (as appropriate and available), and assistance with job application and job placement, plus certification after successful completion.

Our Life-Skills courses include 6-8 hours of in-class study and a certificate of completion.

Our 12-month Student Housing Program includes career training, internship, job placement, life-skills development, English tutoring, and assistance in transitioning to independent living.

We offer scholarship opportunities priortized for victims of sex-trafficking. Scholarship applications are accepted year-round and are granted based on need and availability. Scholarship applicants must provide a letter of recommendation to be submitted with the scholarship application. Recipients who do not complete the program will be ineligible for any future assistance, referral, or certification. Donate now to provide a scholarship.
