🏢 About the local organisation
Pro-Street Children is an institution with the following mission: Understanding and assisting children and teenagers living in the streets, accompanying them in a gradual process which allows them to choose a different option of life. Pro-Niños gives assistance to boys between the age of 10 and 17 years how are living on the streets of Mexico City for a long time. To accomplish our mission, the kids - or Los chavos as they call them - participate in a process consisting of three different steps, designed to help them decide on their own, that the street is no longer the place in which they want to live. The different stages are 1. Street work; 2. Day Center; 3. Alternative Options of Life.
