Diocesan Caritas of Verona Who we are Mission Organization Reception area Social Area Work Area Solidarity Taste Contacts Social Area From the moment of the inauguration of the Casa Accoglienza it became evident the need, in order to ensure that the mission could be realized, to expand the hospitality offer by providing guests with a team of professionals able to support the people who they decide to embark on a path of social reintegration and recovery of their own dimension of dignity. The recovery path usually takes place over time and includes several phases (reception and acclimatization, knowledge of the guest, involvement of the person in the activities of the Home and Day Center, sharing of a project also with the local services, checks in itinere, conclusion of the project) and the use of different tools: observational cards, assessment sheets of personal skills, cognitive interviews, psychological support interviews. A central role throughout the project is undoubtedly the relationship of trust that is established with the various operators and which allows the triggering of change mechanisms. The team is currently made up as follows: - Area Manager - Head of the Day Center and contact person for the Exodus Project - Social worker - Psychologist - Day Center Operators - Contact person for the Reception Area - Contact person for the Work Area - Contact person for the Solidarity Home Project - Contact person for the Asylum Seekers Project The presence of a multidisciplinary team allows us to grasp the whole person, thus allowing his uniqueness as an individual to emerge. The team works in collaboration with the local social services, precisely to ensure maximum synergy of available resources. THE DAY CENTER The need for a space like this has often also been openly expressed by the guests of the night shelter. It is expressed not only as the need to find a welcoming and healthy place as an alternative to the street, but also as a shelter from daily contact with an environment that provides opportunities for relapse into deviant behaviors, addictions, lifestyles that feel the need and the will to abandon. Another significant need that is expressed daily is that of being able to "do something" useful, constructive, as well as to reflect on oneself and create positive relationships as an alternative to the unhealthy ones coming from life on the road. Questo ci ha convinti ancora più fermamente della necessità di costituire un servizio di centro diurno, con spazi propri, in cui poter offrire ospitalità e servizi di base e proporre attività occupazionali e formative che sperimentiamo su piccola scala e vediamo risultare utili e significative per le persone che vi sono coinvolte. Tra le attività proposte: - laboratori espressivi e riflessivi - laboratori "del fare" (falegnameria, giocattoli, scarpe, riparazione biciclette) - laboratori di autonomia (cucina, lavanderia-stireria, informatica) Catering sociale Raccolta vestiti, pile, e farmaci scaduti Lavanderia Scuola di italiano Progetto R.Accolti Progetto Esodo Progetto Richiedenti Protezione Internazionale Scarp de tenis Invictus Sportello unico Progetto Casa Solidale Coop.
