Big Family Center for Rehabilitation and Social Adaptation

Children and teenagers enter the Big Family Center in different ways: some are found off the streets, some find us themselves, some are sent by social services, some are brought in by their parents, who realize that they cannot take care for their children.

The Center is located in a separate building, where up to 30 children live in comfortable conditions, as similar as it is possible to a family environment. They develop during their leisure time, get education at nearby school. Many professionals work with the children, such doctor, lawyer, mentors, social workers, teachers, psychologists and psychotherapists. There is a strict daily routine, classes schedule, rules of residence. Pupils are taught valuable life skills.

It is important, that during the stay in the Big Family Center a child who came into a new friendly environment from a dysfunctional one, realizes that there are different positive ways to live and work towards ones future. That there is always a choice that they can make: to be successful, educated, wealthy, happy or not.

At the same time, we strongly encourage regular communication between the children and their families, and we work with parents to instill in them the values and skills of positive parenting and help them overcome a difficult period in their lives.

We try to ensure that our wards are provided with everything they need. You can also make a donation to support the Center or purchase things or products for the children of the “Big Family”. For more detailed information, please call +38 (068) 777 20 76.
