Today, Mkhitar Hayrapetyan, Executive Director of the “MY STEP” Charitable Foundation, and Aren Deyirmenjian, Representative of the Armenian Missionary Association of America (AMAA) in Armenia, signed an MoU at AMAA’s head office in Yerevan.
The purpose of the memorandum is to support the process of socio-economic reintegration of soldiers injured during the 44-day war in the society. The project will promote the enhancement of professional skills and will create appropriate conditions for them to start their own businesses.
International experience shows that economic development is the most effective way to ensure the inclusion of an individual in society, as it contributes to the latter’s financial stability, self-sufficiency and social well-being.
At the end of the joint program, it is expected that disabled soldiers will be able to reintegrate into active members of society.
