Vistara

Social Integration Program (Panatau, Bucharest)

Purpose: To facilitate the social integration of young people leaving the care system

Beneficiaries: young people, aged 18-25 from Familia AMURTEL

The Vistara Social Integration Program aims to prepare, guide and facilitate the social integration of young people between 18 to 25 years as they transition out of care into independent living. The Vistara Program coaches young people in the practical life skills of money management, finding and maintaining a stable job, and finding and maintaining living arrangements. It also provides continuing support for further education and job training. Young people have the opportunity to stay in semi-independent transitional housing associated with the project during this phase. In addition to practical skills training, attention is given to cultivating a healthy, positive self-reliant attitude. Preparation for this important stage begins at an early age already in Familia AMURTEL, involving the children in household duties, managing pocket money, setting goals, and participating in adventure camps that specifically focus on learning through challenge, problem solving and cooperation.
