The connection with more than 20 socio-community projects, the creation of 81 social prevention groups, the opening of two social protection centers, the inauguration of four children’s houses and the attention to families in vulnerable situations stand out as the main achievements of the program in Matanzas.

“In our daily work, social workers must have great human sensitivity and an enormous sense of justice. These are two essential qualities to prevent and transform problems and unfavorable situations with the participation and social responsibility of all citizens,” said Neylis Rodriguez Padrón, graduate of the third year of the Social Workers Program.

Promoting social action centered on people and aimed at transforming the causes that determine inequalities, and mobilizing human and institutional resources to satisfy the needs and well-being of the people constitutes the reason for being of these workers. (ALH)
