Family Groups
The NHU model is based on Psalm 68:5-6 where God sets the lonely in families. NHU provides a non-institutional family model where children can feel safe, grow in Christ and learn to live as family.
Special Needs
The stigma of living with disabilities can be overwhelming and in Uganda many families are faced with insurmountable challenges. NHU’s Treasures in Jars of Clay ministry provides a place for children with disabilities to find value and understanding that they too were created in the image of God.
Early Adulthood
The transition from being a child to a young adult has it’s own unique set of challenges. NHU’s Early Adulthood program operates our Investment Year program which disciples, trains and explores what it means to be an adult.
Our Early Adulthood team walks with young people through this transition and shepherds them in their further education journey and what it means to be an adult.
NHU’s Early Adulthood department also operates our Investment Year Program. IY is an intensive gap year program which disciples, provides skills and explores who God has created each young person to be. The year long program offers internships, real world experiences and prepares our sons and daughters to leave home and begin to live as young adults on their own.
