Gender--I have not heard it come up yet other than a passing mention of prostitution. We know from years of international development work that if you want to postively impact a village/family the most effective target of income are females. Yet, as the report stated this center targets men who don't have kiddos to stay home with all day.

Do you have daycare at your site so women can participtate? That would be one basic way to ensure that 'just a day job' would be so much more than a decent wage for a single male unit.
