Hi Vicky,
You're right. The second "as" means "because".
There are several errors in the writing related to grammar, word choice, and mechanics. Here are a few examples:
* This is a run-on sentence
* There is at least one article (e.g. "an") that is missing
* There are issues with word choice that make it difficult to understand the meaning of the writing

Yes.... second "as" = "because" here.
However, the overall tone of the paragraph is a little off. It was probably not written by a native English speaker.
