We are a non-governmental organization providing a preventive socio-educational service to at-risk children and teens whose families work in the major Cuenca, Ecuador market known as La Feria Libre. Through an integrated approach, oriented to preserve the continuity of schooling, integration with family, and development of individuals who can take charge of their own future, we increase the skills and confidence of at-risk children so they can find the courage to break vicious cycles of poverty and abuse.
