INL Project Receives National Recognition

The U.S. Embassy Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) project Prevention Homes was rewarded with the National Jorge Debravo Youth Award.

The Prevention Homes offer academic tutoring, music, gardening, cooking, handicrafts, silk screen print-making, and karate classes to young students, as well as psychological support for minors whose development and welfare are at risk.

INL supports these homes by donating computer and audiovisual devices, materials for the workshops, and furniture.

There are Prevention Homes in Limon, Talamanca; Pueblo Nuevo, Finca San Juan, Lomas del Río and Metrópolis in Pavas, and in Alajuelita.
