Objectives

The motivation of this project is due to the fact that many of our people with intellectual diversity (ID) dream of being able to enjoy an autonomous and independent life, like the rest of their peers. This supposes for all of them a very complicated challenge that both the San Xerome Association and the Associazione Collettivo Street Sociale, as transforming social agents, have the duty to guarantee the access to the Right to emancipation of the people with intellectual diversity, so that they can live as they wish: either in couple, -thus realising their dream of living a full affective-emotional relationship-, with flatmates or in solitude, like any other person who leaves his family home to start a new life of his own, their own life.

Background

The motivation of this project is due to the fact that many of our people with intellectual diversity (ID) dream of being able to enjoy an autonomous and independent life, like the rest of their peers. This supposes for all of them a very complicated challenge that both the San Xerome Association and the Associazione Collettivo Street Sociale, as transforming social agents, have the duty to guarantee the access to the Right to emancipation of the people with intellectual diversity, so that they can live as they wish: either in couple, -thus realising their dream of living a full affective-emotional relationship-, with flatmates or in solitude, like any other person who leaves his family home to start a new life of his own,their own life. This project also addresses ethical needs and duties, such as providing answers and solutions to a crucial question: the families of people with I.D. face a great challenge: what will become of their children when they can no longer take care of them, or when they are no longer there? The FOGARES SANXE project is a tailor-made solution to the needs of people with I.D. and their families, as it prepares, trains and accompanies them throughout the process of emancipation.
