# Youth League Social Work: Students Train Highlanders Coming of Age Who are Becoming Social Workers

A mustard-yellow page with two photographs: students demonstrating something to a group of highland youths, and students working on a medical station building marked with a red cross. The captions say students are training highland youths to become social workers and that a medical station built by student volunteers was set up at the village of Ka Da. The tell is the selection of cooperative, helpful scenes with no problems shown.
