Current Context
In a context where domestic violence and socio-economic difficulties are increasingly prevalent, many people find themselves in vulnerable situations. Victims of violence and distressed families, often overwhelmed by feelings of abandonment, rejection, and anxiety, need appropriate and accessible support. To avoid falling into the wrong hands or receiving disguised malicious support, it is crucial to break these dysfunctional patterns in order to promote their rehabilitation, which is a key step towards healing.
Our goal is to offer support through personalized support , self-development and follow-up contacts through our partnerships.
Current Services Offered

"La Consolation" Center
Encourage Inner Strength
We want each individual who participates in our program to discover their inner strength. By providing them with tools and keys to move forward, we help them transform their difficult experiences into a driving force for their future. This process of resilience will allow them to rebuild their lives and look forward to a better tomorrow.
Conclusion
Through this initiative, we aim to break the cycle of isolation and suffering by providing a space where individuals can rebuild their lives and regain hope. By joining forces, we can create a lasting impact, not only for those affected by violence, but also for the entire community. Together, we can build a future where everyone has the opportunity to live in safety, dignity, and harmony, using their experiences to become agents of change in their own lives and the lives of others.
This center is designed as a temporary space where victims can receive ongoing support and resources for their rehabilitation. It allows them to reintegrate positively into society, while taking the time needed to acquire the keys to their healing and break with destructive patterns, both for themselves and their children.
In short, this project is dedicated to understanding and healing victims of violence. It establishes a support system that promotes their well-being and reintegration, allowing them to leave the center having realized their strength, with all the necessary tools for a solid rehabilitation, both for themselves and their children.
This center would provide a retreat environment, the time to acquire the keys and tools essential for their protection, healing and rehabilitation.
Although the urgency is important, follow-up is essential to avoid falling back into similar situations due to ignorance or lack of support.
