The projects
The projects and the social centers of the Oblates, in the light of the objectives of our mission, become welcoming spaces, complete support and the search for opportunities for women. Many aspire and manage to dissociate from the complex reality of prostitution, others do not, but all go through the processes to improve their personal and family quality of life.
The individual accompaniment, based on the pedagogy of love, favors the passage of urgencies to the processes of autonomy and integration, which can develop starting from psychosocial assistance, reception, training programs, entrepreneurship, employment and the creation of other individual actions or groups based on each reality.
