During the last three months, our project Opportunity Home for Women has continued to dedicate itself to the cultural and educational enrichment of our users, as well as to the improvement of their access to employment and their health.
We continued to offer Spanish and theatre classes, and to increase the knowledge and interest in the latter we also carried out cultural activities. We have also supported one of our users in her secondary education. Moreover, we have participated in online workshops dedicated to the different forms of violence suffered by women, together with another organization.
We have increased our search for agreement and collaborations with organizations that would help to increase our users’ employability. One such agreement with AIDE (courses institutes) allowed them to obtain certificates as social-healthcare professionals or school cafeteria supervisors, among others. We have also offered cooking training and job placements at restaurants and, thanks to Lecaser, a food handling course.
Lastly, we have accompanied one of our users to prenatal classes, as we will continue to support her through childbirth. Additionally, we have continued to work on self-care, health monitoring, and to coordinate with health centres, psychologists, and other professionals that participate in each of our users’ cases.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING ALL THIS POSSIBLE!
