Students graduates from the YWCA health care courses

YWCA organized last week and for the second consecutive year in its premises in Ain el Mreisseh a celebration for the graduates of its health care training courses which extended over three months and which included a practicum period at the Khoury Hospital, at the AUB-MC and the Moadieh Evangelical Center.  The training in health care will allow successful graduates to work in hospitals and dispensaries as well as provide care to elderly and infants.  During the celebration, the president of the training committee Edma Farah highlighted the objectives of the YWCA notably the empowerment of women and girls through developing their economic and sustainability skills.  She also thanked that national federation of YWCA in Beirut and the Beirut municipality for their financial support towards that training programme.
