EMBRACIN is a comprehensive model for the reception of young adult migrants, with whom we have had experiences in Andalusia in the cities of Seville, Jaén and Cádiz. These three experiences of reception, for a total of 16 young nationals from third countries, are each supported by six professionals from different disciplines: medicine, law, social work, language interpretation, teaching and psychology.
In addition to the homes in Jaen, with six boys, and Seville, with another six, three boys are already living with families in the province of Cadiz, and one more with a family in Seville.
This is a group of young people, almost all of whom have been released from the protection system when they reach the legal age of adulthood. FAMSI, as a network of local governments in Andalusia, supports reception services and comprehensive support for these young people, with the aim of accompanying them as fully as possible in their transition to adult life in the period between reaching the age of legal adulthood and the establishment of their personal autonomy.
The aim of the EMBRACIN project is to create a fertile environment in which agents and local authorities learn to understand, adapt, reuse and share successful and effective practices in order to provide the necessary knowledge to facilitate the harmonious coexistence of migrants and refugees in the host country.
