How Compassion Helps

Compassion works with its local church partners to identify children in high-risk circumstances. We evaluate factors that include the child's physical and mental health, nutrition and more.
Interventions offered through this program include:
- Nutritional assistance
- Shelter renovations
- Clothing
- Counseling for traumatized children
In addition to foster care and nutritional support, we offer counseling to encourage adolescents to stop risky behavior like sexual activity, alcohol use, smoking and truancy.
