Patronato Escuela para Padres attributes part of the problem to the great number of migrants to the area without adequate socioeconomic resources. The organization is committed to improving the situation through human and social development courses offered to parents and the community. Taller Pro-Discapacitados (Workshop for the Disabled). The organization was recently established to provide disabled people, often those with mental deficiencies such as Down’s Syndrome, with labor skills giving them the opportunity to be more selfsufficient. Founded by the parents, it is their hope to teach their children some skills that will instill in them a sense of self-sufficiency and enable them to be productive members of society. Currently 12 people participate in the program ranging in age from 16 to 36. No description No description
