House of Joy Project

As a family-type foster care center, we focus on the needs of the children who are part of our center. Not just the basic ones, but the ones related to exploring their creativity. That is precisely why we constantly encourage them to evolve and get as close as possible to their passion. A drawing, painting or music course can change the direction in which these young people will go towards the future. We try to open a lot of opportunities for them through these activities that we also promote outside the curricular area maintained by the school.
