To offer a stable and reassuring accommodation solution to the child before considering reintegration into their family.
Objective
Offer a stable and reassuring accommodation solution to the child before considering reintegration into the family.
The Project
Temporary centers welcome children for a period not exceeding 6 months. The child is provided with a stable environment and informal education, while waiting to be reintegrated into the family or to another structure adapted to his or her needs. Temporary center admittance: First stage: the child is identified through day or night outreach sessions led by social workers in the streets of the city, or through local authorities. Second stage: the child is admitted into one of the centers with the approval of the authorities and legal guardians. Third stage: from the arrival of the child, for a period ranging from 3 to 6 months: assessment of the family situation with a view to reintegrating the child into their family. Fourth stage: family reintegration with material and financial support, or transfer into one of our long-term structures: protection center or family house.
