An idle mind is the devils workshop and the cause of all mental health complications. We intend to keep the minds occupied so that the focus may shift from that of feeling depressed and self-pity to that of discovering talents, lifting self-esteem and being positive. This will be done through:
Art
A lot of artistic works like making Rosaries, writing, painting, bead-work,soap making,food art and creating artifacts keep the mind focused and creative leaving no room for stress.
Sewing
With the machines that we have we intend to come up with sewing programs and projects where women will be occupied
Basket weaving
Baskets are highly valued in Kenya and beyond. The women will be engaged in making baskets for sale and economic gain.
Embroidery
This handmade skill will go a long way in leaving the mind stimulated also more so in the production of Mass linens, vestments, Altar clothes.
Clothe weaving
With the hand-looming machine we will come up many clothe, carpet, mats and curtains designs that can also be used for sale and economic gain.
Chicken and Rabbit farming
This activity will keep residents busy and help in relaxing the brains. Meat from the project will be used for sale and to provide food for the center.
Agriculture
Gardening is a strong therapy and also will help to supplement the food.
