COMMUNITY CENTRE

Part of Reality Gives vision is also to address teens and young adults who have been sidelined or ignored by the mainstream education system, or have struggled to find employment after graduation.

The Community Centre, in the heart of Dharavi, operates as a hub for trainings and workshops for the youth.

Reality Gives provides a course composing of English language classes, computer skills training as well as soft skills workshops, which aim to help the young adults to find their own voice, confidence and useful skills when looking for work.

The syllabus used focuses on useful skills that the youth can utilize in their everyday life. Skills, such as CV writing, typing, and presenting will serve them in the longer term when finding new opportunities having finished their formal education.

We employ skilled teachers who are dedicated to teach and to aid the young adults. We also have volunteers to assist.

Reality Gives operates the Centre six days a week providing lessons between 10am and 6pm.

In the evening from 6 to 9pm we have 3 x 1hr computer classes where children from the community come to learn basic computer skills such as Microsoft Windows and Office. Many of the computers, very kindly donated to us by Vodafone, have an internet connection.
