This week, home visits to new boys and girls were initiated at the Soledad headquarters, with the purpose of getting to know some aspects of their personal and family life, and identifying psychosocial risk factors to carry out a timely intervention process that allows the reduction of the effects that these may have in the long term.
In the Soledad headquarters, two projects are being developed aimed at training parents through training workshops focused on learning healthy eating habits and study techniques as a strengthening of food security and academic performance at home for beneficiaries.
The cooperation and teamwork were the fundamental pillars of this month in the Fundación Mi Ciudad con Vida. Children and young people had fun with outdoor games and theatrical activities that allowed them to show their socio-emotional potential. In addition, an activity was carried out with young people in which the strengths, opportunities, weaknesses, and threats that identify in the neighborhood and its surroundings were analyzed.
The beneficiaries of the Soledad headquarters carried out an awareness-raising activity on the care of water and the importance that this natural resource has for life, generating ideas to take care of water sources from home, using a symbolism of droplets that represented each of the contributions
This week at the Soledad headquarters, positive male models were promoted in children, capable of expressing their emotions and feelings, showing everyday actions about the role of men in the family and society through phrases and using representative elements.
During a workday at the Fundación Mi Ciudad con Vida, activities focused on developing life skills such as teamwork, tolerance, respect, and communication were carried out through play and art. In addition, different strategies were used to identify the different needs to work on for the group and individual improvement of the beneficiaries.
With different artistic activities, our beneficiaries expressed myths and realities about the role of women in our society. Through cooperative work, boys and girls highlighted female figures in their homes, community, and society in general. Likewise, different contexts of risks regarding gender violence were analyzed.
In commemoration of International Women’s Day, we held a fun and interactive activity to promote women’s rights. Through games, children were able to highlight the strengths of the girls in their group and recognize the importance of women in different social contexts. With initiatives like this, we aim to build a more equitable and inclusive society for all.
This week we have started our meal service sessions. We welcomed our children with a delicious menu and offered them various recreational and nutritional activities that helped them to strengthen their good eating habits.
This 2023, we have started with the socialization of the projects that we will be developing with our beneficiaries and their families throughout the year in Soledad. During the participatory activity, attendees were able to provide valuable contributions and suggestions, as well as commit to staying active in the process. It was an enriching moment for everyone involved.
