The end of training!

So how is this for incredible? All 12 of us who left Philadelphia managed to stay in Uganda for the 2 months of training! Rarely does an entire training group make it through training without losing any trainees. We have definitely had our ups and downs but we are definitely a strong group of women! So today I can finally call myself true volunteer. We were sworn in at the Ambassador's residence and then released to the care of our Supervisors and our communities around Uganda. I am looking forward to settling in my community in the Western part of the country and beginning work with the clinic and resource centre I have been assigned to.
