This is achieved through innovative education and counseling towards healing, prevention of and addressing the systemic drivers of its prioritised issues, namely (1) trauma and its underlying conflicts, violence and broken commUNITY peace, (2) distorted emotional & social capacity, (3) behaviours promoting HIV/AIDS and related infections, and (4) substance abuse, with special attention for marginalised youths. In particular KAP empowers people at 'grassroots' level by giving them knowledge and skills as well as a concerned and helping human heart. KAP's CORE INTERVENTIONS mainly revolve around (1) Community-based training of Community Resource Persons (CRPs); (2) Provision of professional counselling and (psycho-) education services; (3) Health promotion courses and counselling for reimbursement/for a fee. KAP's prioritised issues are organised into four SUB-PROGRAMMES: (1) HIV/AIDS Behaviour Education, (2) Abuse and Addiction Prevention, Community-Based Treatment and Referral, (3) Prevention and Healing of Violence and Trauma for Peace, and (4) Empowering Youths on the Margins ('Unreached Youths'). A fifth strategic pillar called 'Institutional Excellence' aims at continued organisational, partnerships and human resources development. KAP's CROSS-CUTTING ISSUES are Safeguarding & Protection, Gender, Environmental Preservation, and Other Emerging Issues.
