A comprehensive program for young people transitioning out of the protection system.
Avanza Joven is designed specifically to provide support and tools to institutionalized adolescents. The program focuses on building life skills, helping them face challenges and reach their full potential.
We know that living in an institutional setting can present unique challenges. We believe in the power of personal growth and in every young person's ability to overcome difficulty: through Avanza Joven we want to be a meaningful support on that path toward autonomy.
To foster and develop the skills, competencies, and resources needed by youth approaching the age limit who must leave the protection system, enabling them to transition toward independent and autonomous life.
