💼 What the programme involves
The project “Discover opportunities and supports” is a mobility programme for young people. The object of this European Voluntary Service is to make a contribution to the quality of life of people with intellectual disabilities and promote their social inclusion along with the participation of volunteers to different activities, programs and services. The duties of volunteers have been specifically structured as supportive collaborators in various activities, programs and services held by Atadi in Teruel, such as occupational and day-care center, sociocultural and leisure time activities, sports and summer vacations. Besides, volunteers will be fully orientated and supported in order to develop their own initiatives in Atadi. By participating in this project, European volunteers will discover interests, worries, needs and hobbies of these adult people with intellectual disabilities and seize a chance to learn how to support them in every aspect of life.
