This is important to us

The main objectives of the program are to ensure long-term prospects for the future, prepare young people for independent living, or return them to their families of origin thanks to improvements in their upbringing. The services offered focus on developmental and educational support and integration into training and employment. The young person's basic needs are met and they receive individual support tailored to their abilities.

 

The objectives of animal-assisted education are to promote the development of children and young people by combining animal-assisted activities with appropriate educational programs. In particular, this involves working on strengthening their sense of responsibility and self-esteem, promoting social behavior, developing cognitive and motor skills, and strengthening their perception of themselves and others.
