An emergency center to treat cases of individuals and families in severe distress,

A social support center with the aim of helping prospective people to lead a decent, independent and responsible life.

This new configuration will be complemented in terms of accommodation by a few administrative offices and several group spaces for holding various workshops and courses dedicated to social and professional integration.
