Project Report | Nov 29, 2022
Caregiver or home counselor

By Lucija Rozic | Team Member


2022 has been very exciting for us! The Caregivers program has gained an important momentum where we jumped from assisting two to five orphanages.

We had 80 participants and over 200 hours of workshops and individual mentoring. 

Each institution had to pass 15 workshops with a duration of 45h. The end goal is to receive and learn:

  • Tools to manage the stress of the position
  • Generalities of the adolescent development
  • Knowledge and importance of creating an affectionate bond for the healthy development of the adolescent
  • Strategies for effective communication and tools to achieve it
  • Tools to recognize and handle violence and abuse

We are currently working on a manual, together with the National Secretariat for Children, Adolescence and Family, which supports the institutions in their process of hiring caregivers. The manual will describe profiles they need to search for, exact job descriptions and also suggestions of the employee structure, depending on the size and type of institution.

The manual will also contain a short training to prepare the caregivers for their roles.

Until the next report, stay tuned for more details about the manuals that will help orphanages and other substitute homes in their process to hire, and train future caregivers.

Happy holidays!!.
