Description: AWings for the future is a project aiming at combating educational poverty. It envisages a shared personalized plan intended for families with minors living in conditions of poverty and at risk of social disadvantage. The project is built around the child and his/her family needs. The whole family is taken in charge; education services for children from 0 to 6 years are guaranteed, as well as support activities for parents and for the psychophysical wellbeing of children. 

Specific job counseling services for parents are also implemented to enhance the offer to families, aiming at ensuring adequate and long-lasting living conditions.
