What Takes Place At An Army of Hope International Center?

A balanced healthy meal of meat, carbs, and veggies is provided for the children in their mentor group. This time is also viewed as a bonding time between the mentor and the students.

Tutoring is when the staff and volunteers help the children and youth complete their homework. It focuses on academic areas of weakness. Tutoring usually concentrates on spelling, grammar, reading, and math.

  Practical Living and Read-Aloud are rotated through the month. Each area is described below. 

 Children are taught various life skills during Practical Living time. Topics covered are money management, cleanliness, tidiness, health and hygiene, including dental hygiene, eating out, among other topics.
