Organisatsiooni kirjeldus:

Ancora is a Social Educational Daily Center addressed to disabled adults who live in the provinces of Como and Varese. The CSE has a daily structure and is aimed to people with medium degree disabilities who have finished school; promotes individually designed educational interventions on an annual basis, with short-medium-term objectives, and three-year ones with long-term objectives. The CSE promotes numerous activities aimed to develop personal and social autonomy of the disable people and their integration into the community. Our work is about supporting cognitive skills, communication skills, emotional-relational skills, personal and work skills.
The day in the center starts at 9: small groups of disabled people accompany by one or more educators, assisted by volunteers, dedicate themselves to activities that vary from day to day. All the rooms of the cooperative are animated by workshops which last until 12. Lunch time is pleasant and is an opportunity to get to know and strengthen relationships. The afternoon activities resume at 2 pm, after a coffee break and relaxation, to end at 3.30 pm with greetings and accompaniment at the end of the day.
The activities we offer are numerous, many of which are carried out outside the headquarters in collaboration with schools, specialized centers, ateliers.
The week is very articulated: with this great diversification we try, within the limits of the parameters required by the Lombardy region, to get as close as possible to the specificities of each one, to the needs and personal resources to each one that have to be supported. As example, here are the workshops scheduled on Monday: pancafit, ergotherapy, boilers, music therapy, wedding favors workshop, collection of minor fruits, preparation of the hall for ceremonies, theater games workshop, recycled paper workshop.
During the year there are also moments and activities of entertainment and leisure.
The CSE employs 13 people with different professional roles, including educational, administrative and auxiliary supporter. In detail, 8 people have the role of educators, one person is administrative secretary, one person is in charge of cleaning, two are cooks. There is a psychologist on staff who coordinates the activity of the ESC volunteer.
