In PACO I.A.P. through the program "Integral Attention For At-Risk Mexican Children" our main objective is to provide a safe home to children and adolescents, where they have access to a better quality of life and better opportunities that contribute to their integral development and in the future to their social reintegration.
Through the training workshops we seek to empower young people to have the necessary and long-term tools, so they can develop professionally and have better opportunities that guarantee them a decent life.
During the period from August to December we had a significant academic advance, both in the increase of pedagogical tools so in qualifications:
1) We increase the level of achievement of a 7.2 of the last quarter of the 2018-2019 school year to a quarterly average of the 2019-2020 school year of 8.3
2) It is bought in books and teaching material that served to develop the reading skills of children who have a lag when reading.
3) Children in 1st grade of primary school advanced significantly in word formation and reading.
4) In high school, some of the young people appeared in the honor roll for having an advantage above 9.
Currently one of our young people is a fellow in an energy infrastructure company, in addition to continuing his studies at the Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering. Being an example of overcoming and commitment to others.
Thanks to the support of our donors through our programs, children and adolescents have been able to develop their competences at academic, social and cultural levels. We are delighted to share with you that at the end of December two of our children will successfully reintegrate into their families.
All our children and adolescents are constantly assisted by the medical area and receive, if they deserve it, psychological and psychiatric care. In an integral way we seek to give them the necessary tools to achieve their physical and emotional well-being.
In PACO I.A.P., we know that food is a fundamental part of their development, thanks to your donations we can guarantee our kids a healthy, nutritious and sufficient food every day. In 2019, more than 98,000 servings of food were served.
All this could not be achieved without the support of all the people who trust and believe in our work. Rather than being an institution we seek to be a home for our children and adolescents, where they can dream again and have the opportunity to live a life with the same opportunities as any of us. Thank you for helping us build a future free of violence for children in vulnerable situations.
At PACO, one of our main goals is to contribute significantly to the education of our children. Through its registration in official schools of the formal system, as well as the monitoring and individual support provided within our facilities. Through education we seek to train young people with a better future, away from the risks to which they were previously exposed and break with the circle. By providing them with a basic, middle and high school education at least, we ensure that once they are independent, they have greater opportunities in the market and a better quality of life.
Thanks to the support of our donors, PACO children have had various achievements in academic and social terms. This year more than 60 children users of the program "Comprehensive care for children at risk" had access to official education service. Far from looking for alternatives in the streets, these children have been able to attend the school to prepare for the future. We are very proud of your courage and commitment to learn new lessons. In fact, we have good news.
4 children obtained their preschool certificate
4 children obtained their primary certificate
2 teenagers obtained their High School certificate.
1 teenager obtained his Baccalaureate certificate and his family reintegration was achieved.
The school average was 8.5, with users who had grades higher than 9. We are very proud of these achievements, and without a doubt this would not have been possible without the support of people like you, who trust in the work of this organization.
However, this project not only contemplates academic achievements, but is an integral process in which PACO children fully enjoy their Human Rights. Throughout this year 37800 portions of food have been served with the necessary nutrients for the correct development of our users. In addition, each of them has access to physical and psycho-emotional health services, as well as dental care. In addition, children receive training workshops that will help them acquire tools for life. These workshops are; crafts, bakery, blacksmithing, carpentry and calculation.
The development of PACO's children is achieved thanks to you. With your donation, children and adolescents can exercise their right to education and we can continue to fulfill our mission. Upon entering PACO, children have an educational lag, but thanks to their support, we can provide them with the necessary attention and tools to bring them up to date and successfully complete their school year.
