Los Realejos City Council creates a pioneering network of socio-labour agents to improve care for unemployment and social vulnerability, with the support of the Don Bosco Foundation. Some twenty professionals participate in this project, included in the Los Realejos Suma strategy.
The first deputy mayor and councilor for Employment of Los Realejos, Adolfo González (PP), and the councilor for Social Welfare, Olga Jorge (PP), yesterday attended the Casa de La Parra Cultural Space where a work session was held to set up the first municipal network of social and labor agents to improve the tools and responses to the drama of unemployment.
For González, this initiative, which involves educational, employment and social welfare agents, “will be a pioneering technical space for the coordination and implementation of more effective and global responses. Knowing what, how, when, where and with whom is crucial when we talk about socioeconomic vulnerability and socio-labour insertion and to be more efficient and rationalize available tools and resources».
As stated in the project, “the needs of unemployed people in vulnerable situations will be analyzed from a logical approach, a map of services will be built, the responses of the services present will be analyzed, the possible absence of some or the oversupply of others and shared competency analysis tools will be designed».
Olga Jorge added that “it is key to identify what are the real difficulties suffered by people in a situation of unemployment or other circumstances of vulnerability, and why they have come to this context in order to achieve their full social and labor inclusion.”
For the realejero mayor, Manuel Domínguez (PP), “this comprehensive strategy of social and labor intervention is in line with the creation and development of complementary employment policies that, not being the direct responsibility of the municipalities, we will continue to promote.”
