PROYECTO HOMBRE. A NGO IN MOTRIL.

I am a member of this charity because I could see the need of this kind of NGO, especially for young people. The reason comes from the time I was a director in a high school, because I could see how big a problem can be, in a family whose son or daughter is involved with drugs of any kind.

Proyecto Hombre is a NGO that started to work in Spain in 1984. In Motril exist from 2000 in Barranco de la Higuera street, number 11. This NGO works for helping people who are addict to any kind of drugs and wants to be helped.

The first step is to come to the center, where experienced and prepared people knows you and your problem. Secondly the therapy is focused in getting an abstinence and breaking with the world of drugs. At the same time, a process of mature and self-confidence starts, with the goal of increasing the education and lost reponsability, so as, approaching the person to family and society. The assistance may be ambulatory or residential for 4 to 6 months. Special programs are prepared for young people and those in prison.

At this moment my contribution is only with money but not very far it will be as volunteer, giving part of my free time.
