The Next Step program equips our sponsored children for adult life so that they are fully prepared to live on their own once their sponsorship is complete. Sponsors are given the option to support the young person over a three or four year period until they are fully ready to start life on their own.

The Next Step program equips our sponsored children for adult life so that they are fully prepared to transition to living on their own once their sponsorship is complete. The curriculum covers topics such as job skills, budgeting and financial skills, spiritual growth, decision making and relationship building.
Children who complete secondary school develop a written plan regarding their post-secondary plans, which is then shared with their sponsors. The young person may choose to attend university, start a business, or choose some kind of vocational training or apprenticeship to enter a trade. The sponsors are given the option to support the young person through these next steps until they are fully ready to start life on their own. Once they complete their training or higher education, they move on from the Next Step sponsorship program and begin supporting themselves while still receiving support, mentoring, and spiritual guidance from our international staff.
