I am very interested in adopted and foster children. I believe every child has the human right to a safe and healthy home environment. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. This is a great website I found that helps teachers navigate with this sensitive human rights issue. It's a great resource for not only understanding how to approach adopted students, but also how to teach other children about the lives of those whom live with guardians that are not their parents.

Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit organization dedicated to building houses for the most needed.  It is present in 17 countries in Latin America and the caribbean.  Most of the houses are built by volunteers and families that have been benefited with houses.  This webapage can be used to present the topic of Human rights, solidarity, and how every person has the right to live in their own home.  It can also foster volunteer work in the community by contacting a local office in your country.
