A vacation to support those most in need<\/h2>\n\n

Waldensian Homes put hospitality at the service of solidarity, concretely. 100% of the profits generated go to support the Valdese Diaconia<\/a>‘s social, educational and welfare projects. It means that with your stay you contribute to the realization of initiatives and services aimed at the elderly, minors, migrants and fragile and disabled people. But what, specifically, are these projects? There are three areas of intervention: Health, Inclusion and Educational Services, each with its own facilities, services and campaigns. <\/p>\n\n

Waldensian Diaconia Educational Services: areas of focus<\/h2>\n\n

The Educational Services area<\/a> offers welcome and support to minors in situations of social, psychological and health fragility, making use of personalized projects in collaboration with local agencies. Each service enhances the individual life paths of boys and girls, to allow each and every one to fully express their specificities. A delicate and complex area of intervention, requiring a wide spectrum of professionalism – psychological, psychiatric, pedagogical and social. Fundamental is the synergy with social services, educational institutions, territorial health services and sports associations, to enrich the path of growth. <\/p>\n\n

Waldensian Diaconia Educational Services: the facilities<\/h2>\n\n

Sono otto le strutture adibite ai Servizi Educativi della Diaconia Valdese, tutte in Toscana. Gli appartamenti Ulisse e Nautilus<\/a>, per minori stranieri non accompagnati tra i 16 e 21 anni inseriti su disposizione del Ministero dell\u2019Interno, in collaborazione col servizio sociale del Comune di Firenze. L’appartamento Airone<\/a>, per ragazze e ragazzi con disagio psico-socio-familiare tra i 18 e i 21 anni. Le comunit\u00e0 residenziali per minori Arco e Colonna<\/a>, che offrono un ambiente idoneo alla crescita con interventi trasversali, dall\u2019ambito scolastico fino a quello sanitario. I centri diurni Ferretti<\/a> e La Limonaia<\/a>, rivolti a minori con necessit\u00e0 di sostegno, accoglienza e relazione, in collaborazione con un\u2019equipe multidisciplinare di assistenti sociali e specialisti delle ASL. Attico 21<\/a>, appartamento dedicato a ragazzi e ragazze tra i 16 e i 21 anni che si preparano a intraprendere, molto precocemente, un percorso di vita autonoma. <\/p>\n\n

Counseling Services and the School Project<\/h2>\n\n

And then the services, such as the Counseling Path<\/a>, which based on the experience gained in the educational centers of the Florentine Waldensian Diaconia aims to support adolescents and preadolescents in collaboration with the Azienda Usl Toscana Centro and the Social Services of the municipality of Florence. Over time, pathways for adults and trainings for businesses have been added to encourage independent tool development and goal achievement. Not to be forgotten is the School Project<\/a>, which, thanks to a team of specialized professionals, develops interventions aimed at minors, their families and educational institutions. Starting from a careful needs analysis, the workshops are mainly aimed at students but always involve teachers and parents as well. <\/p>\n\n
