Fundaćion Junto con los Niños de Puebla
Description of the organisation:
Mission:
The JUCONI Foundation develops, implements and shares effective solutions for socially excluded children, young people and families affected by violence.
Values:
¿What JUCONI believes?
JUCONI believes that the various forms of familial violence cause profound damage to a child’s capacity to secure his/her healthy development.
For children from marginalized families plagued by intergenerational violence, social and scholastic success is almost impossible. Many take to street-involvement where amid exploitation, crime, and drugs, they suffer still more damage. Without an intervention that tackles the fundamental reason for their social exclusion family violence and its profound consequences- these children are likely to remain trapped in the cycles of chronic poverty and abuse into adulthood.
JUCONI seeks out the population made most vulnerable by poverty and familial violence: street involved children and their families. JUCONI believes that the highly personalized, long-term services can heal the deep wounds of familial violence, and forever break the cycles of poverty and abuse that otherwise trap these children and families.
Through its unique intervention, JUCONI’s program achieves permanent positive change that creates productive families that are free of violence and street-involvement.
¿What makes JUCONI unique?
JUCONI is distinct for the following reasons:
* JUCONI never gives up on or expels a child or family from the program.
* JUCONI maintains an emphasis on quality over quantity.
* JUCONI knows that what works for one child may not work for another.
* JUCONI shares its success and knowledge with the world.
