In the past three months, Fundación Azulado has been planning several new projects. You will soon hear form us!

Finally we will be able to return to schools in three weeks and implement Mi Escudo in five schools in Quito. We are very excited to see teachers and children again !

We are working with most of our patients in sight and for some weeks we had to see clients online. During these months we have provided more than 720 hours of psychotherapy to children and families in need.

This week we will train 40 professional that work with migrants in My Shield – Family Version Program, so they can apply this methodology with families that need it.

We have done various interviews and online talks for the community on different topics on child rearing and wellbeing .

Azulado and Universidad San Francisco de Quito will launch the third edition of a 3 month online training of Mi Escudo for psychologists, teachers, social workers and pediatricians .

We are still providing a monthly online Circle of Security program, with parents from many countries.

This year we continue to reinvent our work to the lock down of Covid in Ecuador , Schools continue closed these months so we have had to do the majority of work online .

Our national radio program on prevention of sexual abuse for children that we did together with the Ministery of Education continues every week , and this is great because many children and families in rural areas have access to this method of listening to our program.

Also , we are starting to work with workers in the flower industry this semester , We are going to work with employees of Colour Republic in workshops related to gender equality , and prevention fo domestic violence .

We have done various seminars online for the community on child abuse prevention and positive discipline . These seminars are done in our web pages and we have had a lot of viewers on each one .

Azulado worked together with Cooperazione International and Unicef in a program of training trainers on our program Mi Escudo and now they are working in communites in the border with Colombia with our kit Mi Escudo d and reported having great results .

We continue offering psychotherapy in our Foundation to low income families and there has been and increase in demand in these last months .

We participated in the Keeping Children Safe congress in USA .

We are preparing to begin in September live classes again in schools and already have a list of schools in Quito and outside of Quito where we will begin our program.

Azulado and Universidad San Francisco de Quito have finished their first 3 month online course in the training of Mi Escudo for psychologists ,teachers , social workers and pediatricians .

We have done two more course on Circle of Security with parents online and are now offering our third course .
