Project Needs and Beneficiaries

The target beneficiaries are children and adolescents in a situation of social vulnerability, in the neighbourhood of Esplanada Santa Terezinha, city of Taubaté, São Paulo. Here are concentrated innumerable families who daily face problems of drug abuse, alcoholism, domestic violence, sex abuse and unemployment, which generate family instability and hinder the healthy development of young children and adolescents. We implement several activities to support these families socially and spiritually
