Kabati Neighborhood

The Kabati Youth Group Neighborhood sits just above Trinity United Methodist Church, away from the lake.  Many of church members and our first Kenyan Panua Board Members live in this neighborhood. This area is the closest to the main market and the center of town.  This community is more entrepreneurial-minded. Homes here are made of more permanent building materials and the roads are slightly better than in other areas.

You may notice in many profiles that a number of youth are completely orphaned or abandoned at a young age.  They typically are taken in by a relative, guardian or generous community member until they are old enough to sustain themselves.  Also, when you see youth living in semi-permanent or temporary housing, it means that they are living on government-owned land which can be taken from them at any time.  Inua works diligently to ensure that all youth in the program are in safe housing and have enough bedding for each family member.
