Beskrivelse af organisationen

“Crescer a Cores – Associação de Solidariedade Social – IPSS” is an Association officially considered as a Private Institution for Social Solidarity by the Portuguese Law. Crescer a Cores is a non-profit association with regional reach which main aim is to accompany and support the social inclusion of our target groups which are children, youngsters and families who are in social disadvantage situations, through providing community responses and services on the fields of psychology, education and health. Since 2013 we are running a day nursery, where our ESC volunteers develop their projects, that has a pedagogical aim to contribute for personal and social development, with about 40 children between 4 to 36 months old coming from several different backgrounds, mostly with socially deprived situations.
The work of the Crescer a Cores is based on a community and systemic intervention (identification of needs, action objectives, preparation of training plans, monitoring and evaluation of the entire process) focused on children, families and the community, within the framework of a broader concept of education that considers the different levels of social relationships through active participation and proximity to all stakeholders.
