Nangarhar Women’s Prison JALALABAD AFGHANISTAN

Main Entrance

The Women & Children

Inside the main entrance; this ditch takes you to the visiting area. Picture 1

Once inside the gate, this area winds around to the visiting area. Picture 2

Visiting Area Length: 150 Feet Width: 25 Feet This walk area is used for visiting with family. We would like to see the ditch running down the middle covered up; picnic tables and flowers added. There is no roof to shelter the women and children as they visit, a canopy would be nice.

Learning Resource Center & Clinic

Inside the Learning Resource Center

The Learning Resource Center will be renovated in the coming months. We are seeking desks, chairs and bulletin boards to help make this area ready for classes. We have a qualified Afghan teacher but no means to pay her a salary. Part of this building will be used as a clinic for the women and we are in need of an examining table and cabinets for supplies.

Yard Area

The yard area is in need of leveling with the addition of grass and gravel around the well area.

The yard area is where the women gather to do their laundry, collect their water from the well, visit and sleep during the hot summer months. This area is in need of a makeover. A play area sectioned off for the children would be nice along with some picnic tables and chairs. The length of this area is about 225 feet with a width of 65 feet.
