Peru: Ciudad de los Niños de la Inmaculada

About the local hosting organization

Ciudad de los Niños de la Inmaculada works to provide comprehensive care to children, adolescents, and young people in situations of vulnerability and social risk by offering education, training, housing, food, social, psychological, and spiritual support to improve their quality of life and promote their holistic development. It provides a home for those who have no place to stay. Regular activities include identifying the individual needs of the children and adolescents at CDLN to strengthen personalized support, as well as detecting and intervening in cases involving socio-emotional issues. Health promotion and prevention campaigns are also carried out, along with the implementation of educational, recreational, and psycho-pedagogical programs that promote values and contribute to the comprehensive development of the beneficiaries. Here, children and their companions can rest, have access to meals, and participate in workshops in a safe and welcoming environment.
