Time magazine calls TYO an "excellent pre- and after-school program"

TYO was excited to be featured in Joe Klein's recent column in Time magazine, "Renewal in the West Bank." We are indeed proud to contribute to the trends that Klein cites, including institution building and increased security. That said, we couldn't agree more with Klein's disclaimer that all of the progress he observed during a recent visit to the West Bank (and TYO!) is tempered by major ongoing challenges including external control of "borders, the airspace, the water supply and the electricity." Klein also discusses the excellent work of TYO partner, the Education for Employment Foundation, with which we have a long-standing relationship and hope to start concrete collaboration in Fall 2010, in the context of a US State Department grant.
