The Leadership and Character Development Institute (LCDI) is a grassroots boarding school designed to motivate and prepare youth that have been ‘left behind’ for life. The program focuses on the poorest students, seeking to provide both vocational training and life skills for high school dropouts, former gangsters and those who never had opportunities for education.
“The goal of the program is to provide occupational training skills, on-the-job-experience as well as basic educational services, and leadership development counselling.”
Using peer education, a strict discipline and tested curriculum, LCDI has successfully provided many students with opportunities in the workforce and provided a constructive future for many students who might have otherwise become gangsters or remained in poverty.
