“We are very happy to relaunch Nueva Oportunidad; We already did it in Rosario, today we are doing it in the city of Santa Fe.

A training program for vulnerable youth
This measure is aimed at young people between 12 and 35 years old, who we support with a scholarship of thirty thousand pesos per month. For ages 12 to 15, a kit is provided to use during training, she explained.
“Ultimately, all this is about a call. In addition, it is a listening space that is held with the workshop leaders, who will accompany each of these young people who are part of Nueva Oportunidad in the pedagogical journey,” added the minister.
In this sense, its specific objectives include generating and strengthening links between young people, their neighborhood and their locality in order to strengthen integration networks with the community; promote the protagonism of young people, accompanying group spaces for training, exchange and discussion that constitute areas of reference; and promote the addressing of unique situations by strengthening and accompanying the interventions of the territorial teams, with the necessary technical support for their implementation.
On the other hand, within the framework of the progress towards the implementation of the program, last week, in Rosario, 250 people were trained who will serve as companions for the young people; initiative that will soon be replicated in different places in the province.
