"The youth don't have enough positive things to do and they get into drugs"

​Everywhere, volunteers and leaders recognize the problems facing their youth populations and they are requesting help in knowing how to make a difference.  In learning about Wholistic Youth Development, they are taught to identify external and internal factors that play a role in the life of a youth and identify practical ways to implement a wholistic approach to  youth ministry.

"Many families are not together and the children suffer"
​-Lanna Theological Center Student

Picture
Broken relationships are found in every community.   In the lessons on Biblical Conflict Resolution, people are recognize issues that create conflict among teams, co-workers and families, and how to use Biblical guidelines for conflict resolution.  This can be a key factor in the success of any ministry, development project and family relationships.

"We need this so badly to build relationships in the villages we are trying to help."
​-Academic Dean at KMTC

Picture
Health volunteers, Bible school students and others that we train are often serving among the rural poor with little access to proper healthcare in Northern Thailand, Laos and Myanmar.  Our training is equipping them with skills in helping communities to recognize resources that they already have available to use for solving their self-identified problems.  They are learning to help families identify areas of weakness and help formulate a plan to strengthen areas such as nutrition or finances in the Asset-Based Community Development lessons about Using What We Already Have.

​At the Barefoot Doctors School, we train these dedicated village health volunteers in preventative health care topics they have identified as major health concerns in their often remote and conflict-torn areas of Myanmar, which is considered, unfortunately, to have the worst health care system in the world according to the World Health Organization.  The school graduates 20 students after 3 consecutive years of a 6 week training, we are honored to be a part of this 6 weeks every season.

​One of the core values of CHE is Building Relationships.  Students learn the importance of doing home visits well with good listening skills. They work through the steps in carrying out home visits and they learn to recognize the stages of behavior change.  This important skill can help families to set realistic goals.  It's also an important skill to help avoid ministry burnout, recognizing that change takes time and to allow the Holy Spirit to work, another core value of the strategy we use. 

"Because of the core values, the people own and invest into the project, taking care of it, because it's theirs." -Myanmar Coordinator and alumni of  Barefoot Doctors, referring to community development well projects
