✨✨✨For some time now we have been launching a new + project, which we would like to bring to your attention. as coordinator, together with the partners: VIRTUAL CAMPUS LDA, Hope Empowerment Foundation, PANEPISTIMIO AIGAIOU, Associazione DuePunti implements the project A comprehensive kit for social inclusion of people with mental disabilities -

✨✨✨ Our project proposes an itinerary where adults with mental disabilities define their personal plans regarding social life and employment and are guided and empowered through practical tools, which would be adapted to fit people with intellectual disabilities needs. The new tools and methodologies will facilitate people with intellectual disabilities to gain direction, to get emotionally stabilized, to make their own choices, to become more empowered and to join the labor market. This will be beneficial not only for the direct beneficiaries but also for their families and society.

✨✨✨ The project will therefore have a twofold approach, focusing on developing skills for the professionals and providing
adequate support and contents for adults with mental disability. The project will not only have punctual interventions and activities with the group of 50 adults with mental disabilities, but it will have weekly interventions so that we can indeed monitor the progress of these adults.
The objectives of the project are the following:
✏️ To empower a group of 50 adults with intellectual disability in order for them to lead an autonomous personal, professional and social life, through a process-oriented methodology (constant support meetings), through a training and through project results.
✏️ To foster social inclusion for a group of 50 adults with mental disabilities that participate in the project, through the specific
support and educational activities of the project.
✏️ To develop competencies for a group of 50 practitioners from the 5 participating organizations in the field of support for people with intellectual disabilities, focusing on the promotion of an autonomous life.
