In the November Child Poverty Insights issue, Farzana Kashfi, Santhosh Ramdoss and Scott MacMillan highlight BRAC's Empowerment and Livelihood for Adolescents (ELA) program, which offers hundreds of thousands of adolescent girls the opportunity for a better life through mentorship, life skills training and microfinance.
