Many young people, particularly women, have their youth cut short and are forced to look after their siblings after losing their parents to death or abandonment. Rise hosts are joined by young women who speak about the challenges they face and the support systems available and unavailable to them. 
Wilma Calvert and the Rise Young Woman Pamela Mbantsini and Priscilla Thami join us in studio.
