OUR APPROACH - The Community LEd Pathway Model – (CLP Model) focuses on creating a community ownership to Champion Education in schools as the main base of their future. This approach cultivates and maintains a lasting, trusting relationship with the community, the education stakeholders and the youths to achieve success in education, Youth Skilling and employment, health and Sanitation promotion and Sustainable Green Environment. CLP Model takes a Five Module Training approach of the Youth Peer and ToT Structures on; Community Education Advocacy, Youth Skilling and Employment, Health and Sanitation Education, AYEDfo Greening Approach and Art and Social creation

These CLP Model Components deliberate on issues to remove obstacles of youth under performance and engage them in a broad set of programs and services in the community.

The CLP Model looks at building a strong youth relationship by noting that a disconnected youth from the community has a variety of risk factors that cannot be quickly addressed by just a mere talks and sensitization/awareness but by building a long-term relationship to create lasting change.
