Badplass

Yesterday I had a meeting with George and Robin.

About a week ago a missionary couple contacted Robin to ask if Hands could please help the project at Badplass to learn to be more effecient as they reach out to the OVCs in their community. This couple has been working with Badplass for some time and the leaders of the project expressed a need for additional training. They have been working for two years and have government funding.

George asked to meet with me and Robin to discuss what my roll in this process will be now and in the future. He would like for us to use this project to help me to define what we need to know from the community about where they are now. Then create a guide to process if we can help them and pratically how.

George was very clear that my role with Hands is not simply to train "nurses," but to help Hands to know what projects we can help and how.

Of course this role will continue to evolve as time passes, but it nice to keep you informed of the process.
