G. To give business advice, motivation and financial help in the form of means tested loans, so as to set-up their own income generating small projects. This enables them to find employment or set up their own business after gaining some experience. H. To help individuals at the periphery of the society to integrate into the main stream of society. Many of our target group especially girls, having suffered mental, physical and even sexual abuse at the hands of others. Daily abuse within families is very common. This is often fueled by alcohol. Alcohol abuse by men is widespread in slum areas because it is cheap, and because they think, it is a release from the harsh realities of poverty however short. Such poverty and abuse results in lack of confidence, and an inability to form relationship with other people. Integrating with others brings the opportunity of friendships, giving the pupils social skills, which in the strict confines of family life is not always possible. By learning how to relate with others and by having the chance to share problems, that is provided by LACIT through workshop and Seminars the youths gains more confidence & hope. Naturally, this enables them to reintegrate into society, and help them to either successfully obtain employment or run a small business of their own.
