Mentoring Problematic Youth With Heart
One of the keys to success in preventing children from returning to committing unlawful behavior is by providing them with skills. The youth can be empowered and leave their dependence on the criminal world.
A number of children facing legal problems were praying together at the Bina Sejahtera Indonesia Foundation (Bahtera) Bandung, West Java on Wednesday (18/1/2023).
The green building in the Batununggal area, Bandung, West Java, at first glance looks like an ordinary house. There were no iron bars on the windows or security posts in front of the house. On a Wednesday afternoon (18/1/2023), the doors and fences of the house were also left open.
It is in this house, managed by the Bina Sejahtera Indonesia Foundation (Bahtera) in Bandung, that young people who breached the law undergo social rehabilitation. They take part in various mentoring programs before returning to their families.
