From a family that has suffered significant loss, Joseph is the oldest grandchild of five cared for by elderly grandparents. While on home visits in 2008 our assessment team was introduced to this family and the expressed need was for education support for Joseph. Due to the distance on foot which Joseph had to cover daily to school he was enrolled in boarding school in order to spend more time on studies. He has been an average student.
