This makes me so happy! This is a complex cultural issue and tramping all over it in our western hobnailed boots demanding change is neither ethically nor practically justified. This warm, supportive and above all LOCAL approach empowers these communities to make their own way towards healing rather than disempowering them by imposing our world view on them. I am so thankful for the time, energy and material resources being invested in this campaign.
