Resumo: The hosting organization is a non-profit organization with more than 30 years of experience working with people at risk of marginalization and social exclusion. We have a long history of working with young people and their families in the framework of the prevention of social exclusion in some of the most marginalized areas of the city.
The work is mainly focused on the quality of life and integration of children at risk of social exclusion in our area through different projects and activities, and supporting their families.
We have been working in different areas and municipalities of the Region since 1986. The organization is made up of four groups (neighborhood collectives) that develop and implement different projects that work in specific areas, sadly famous for the high risk of social exclusion of their inhabitants.
Our work began in the 90s as a response to the needs of the boys and girls living in Los Rosales: family problems, poverty and economic struggle, lack of trust in the educational system, early school-leaving, lack of space for activities of leisure where to have fun and live together.
The objectives of the organization are:
- Addressing the problems of dysfunctional children, young people and adults, in order to respond to these situations through direct interventions and support.
- Provide support and supervision where needed (urban areas, police stations, prisons, centers for drug addicts, etc.).
- To get close to the concerns and anxieties of families and individuals in general, and to get involved and help them look for possible solutions.
- Promote education and raise public awareness on these issues, developing critical analysis of situations that become an obstacle to the integration process.
- Coordinate the work in the different areas and cooperate with the many organizations or institutions that share the same objectives.
Perfil: This project is aimed at young people between 18 and 30 years old who have not participated in any European volunteering project (EVS or ESC) before. We will give priority to the selection of young people with fewer opportunities.
The selection will be made based on the attitude, the willingness to participate, the motivation and the commitment to the values of the project rather than knowledge and skills of the candidates .
We value the responsibility, the spirit of initiative, the patience and the ability to step back from interpersonal conflicts in order to deal with them more effectively, and the enthusiasm and willingness to participate in the different activities offered.
No young person willing to participate in our project will be excluded for any reason (economic difficulties; social or geographical obstacles; cultural or ideological differences; sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, gender and gender identity, etc.).
Tarefas: This project will be carried out mainly in a neighborhood where has been characterized for decades by the process of socioeconomic decline, suffering major problems related to housing and social exclusion, as well as a general deterioration that affects many levels: urban, physical and social, and problems in the social and labor integration of the inhabitants.
