The Women's Ministry of the Ghana Congress on Evangelization (GHACOE) together with National Entrepreneurship and Innovation plan is embarking on a project seeking at training teenage mothers who conceived and gave birth during the COVID 19 era in vocational skills. 

The Ministry aims to promote the well-being and development of teenage mothers in Ghana to empower entrepreneurial skills training for the vulnerable in the society.

However, a group of women from GHACOE visited the traditional leaders of Adantia in the Sunyani West Municipality of the Bono Region to inform and seek for their support with the project they are embarking on. 

Speaking in an interview with the Regional President of GHACOE, Mrs. Joyce Takyi Kemevor, she disclosed that the project seeks to train 80 needy teenage mothers in Bono, Bono East and Ahafo Regions with vocational and entrepreneurship skills to restore hope and transform their future and the entire future generation with socio-economic empowerment. 

She said the vocational training program for the teenage mothers will offer abundant life by teaching them the vocational skills such as decoration, ice cream, soap making and will also be an opportunity to impact them with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

She added that they will help trainees to grow in their faith adding that after the successfully completion of the program, the young women will not only have a marketable skill, they will also receive support so that they can start their own business.

Some of the teenage mothers expressed gratitude to GHACOE for such kind gesture extended to them and promised to utilize the vocational skills they will receive.
