About the Program

A comprehensive day program offers nurturing care, life skills, education, socialization and daily, nutritious meals to impoverished and vulnerable children. The 20 children enrolled in the program are 6 to 16 years old with special needs such as autism, mental retardation, and Down’s syndrome. The program runs from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and is staffed by three teachers. The teachers provide loving and compassionate care to the children to help them reach their full potential, learn how to care for themselves and interact appropriately with others. In addition to helping the children, the program serves as respite to families who must work during the day to survive, and supports families in remaining together. Former Alliance for Children staff residing in Vietnam monitor the program closely to ensure its success.
