Avicres consists of the Brazilian organization "AVICRES" in Nova Iguaçu, Rio de Janeiro, and the associated German partner organization "Brasilieninitiative AVICRES e.V." based in Paderborn.AVICRES was officially opened on the 23rd of August 1991, by the theologian Johannes Niggemeier, who started working at that time with children living in social vulnerability in the county of Mesquita, in the Community Lírio do Vale. Later on the counties of Nova Iguaçu and Belford Roxo, all in the State of Rio de Janeiro, were included. Throughout the years this work started to also include teenagers, adults and elderly in social vulnerability. The main purpose of Avicres is to promote the growth and integral development of the human being, offering educational, psychological, assistencial and health support.All of AVICRES' educational projects are completely free of charge, the families don't pay any kind of monthly fee or have expenses with any costs concerning material that is used during the time the children and teenagers are enrolled. These projects, based on the Holistic Pedagogy, work so that children and teenagers may live with dignity, away from the streets and social risks.AVICRES is not the result of our own will, but an answer to our vocation: our option for the poor and most in need.
