(PARENTESIS) represents the need of not judging people
but receiving them as they are, by promoting spaces
of freedom. To put into brackets, the name of the
Foundation, means that painful or problematic experiences
can be transitory in people’s life, and those
experiencing them are not defined themselves and identified
by these painful experiences.

4) Social Programs
The objective of these programs is to receive, support
and offer specialized assistance to people who live
in specially vulnerable situations and social exclusion,
by promoting their dignity and social inclusion. These
programs are based on one hand on the respect of people’s
rights and on the other on highly technical knowledge
and methodologies.
We receive children, young people and adults through
the following programs:
- Free therapeutic programs for young people and adults
who present drug abuse. This program is carried out
in transitory and residential models.
- Nursery and kindergarten assistance for those children
whose mothers are involved in a residential therapeutic
process;
- Free specialized and timely legal assistance to
minors who are or have been deprived of freedom, due
to trials in crime and/or minor courts (imprisonment,
under discernment statement, under criminal procedure
or illegally deprived of freedom);
- Support to the development as well as social and
family reintegration of teenagers deprived of freedom.
