General information
Context
In the context of the economic crisis that crosses our country, the social structure has suffered transformations, marked by the deepening of the inequality in the distribution and by the poverty; and a process of social fragmentation characterized by the breakup of the primary relationships and the difficulties to develop collective strategies to overcome the social conditioning and emergent obstacles due to this context.
The family institution, fundamental in the social reproduction, suffers deeply the multiple destructive effects of the growth of the poverty that generates a high vulnerability index and it causes damages in the socio-affective relationships.
The emergent manifestations of this situation are, among other: the violation of the rights of the children and adolescents, the alcoholism, the drug addiction, the delinquency, the exclusion from the formal educational system, the insufficient preparation to face the labor system, etc. The classic interventions interested only what is emergent or the symptoms of the problem. A new and complementary intervention is needed.

Non lucrative Associations and groups linked to diverse religious communities always existed. The newness is this widespread conscience of the task that they can develop in a society whose institutions are in constant transformation.
