| Center for Hmong Adolescent Development (CHAD) |
| -- was initially active in mid-1998 in cooperation with HAMAA, undertaking
its mission to identify, contact, communicate with and bring back into the
Hmong Community those youth who are runaways or “family castaways”
(those young people ordered out of the house for some alleged violation
of cultural, legal or moral laws and “family honor”) now involved
in youth gang activity. Former soldiers and their wives serve as Mentors
for those youth from broken homes or orphaned by the war who need the guidance
of a senior family member to develop a life path and return to our Community.
Program Elements: • At-Risk-Youth Intervention • Parent/Teen Relations • Youth Guidance • Hmong Community Safety Net • Personal Goals Development • Career Path – Education and Work History • Mentoring Program |
