Stepping Stones International

Stepping Stones International(SSI) is an innovative after school and community outreach programme established in 2006 in Mochudi, Botswana that serves orphaned and vulnerable adolescents (ages 12-25+) and their caregivers. Through school counsellors and the community, SSI identify orphaned youth who under-perform academically, live in abusive environments or have basic unmet needs. Through a holistic programme model, which combines life skills, leadership, psychosocial support and community mobilization we enable youth to heal the scars of the past and reconnect with their lost childhood, while growing into self-sufficient young adults.
