senara-tan-courseCongratulation to our Social Worker, Tan Senara. She has completed her 1 year course with First Step Cambodia on social work and counselling.
Senara said “This was a great opportunity for me to attend this long term course. I have more training and practising at the same time, so it gained more my knowledge and skill to support and work with my clients effectively”. We are very happy Senara finished her course so she can help all the women that drop in at our center and come to our workshops even better.
