At fifteen, Yeison (pronounced Jason) began studying in the seventh grade at the Micah Project in February 2009.  He joined the project officially in June of that year.   As a child, Yeison bounced around between family members:  sometimes living with his alcoholic father, sometimes with his mother and five siblings, and sometimes with his grandmother, who sells tortillas by the national stadium.   Yeison has found a much-needed stability at the Micah Project!
