PROGRAMS

FARO PROGRAM (FAmily-ROdelillo)

This is the backbone program for Rodelillo Foundation. It arises as a way of having our own space; to apply innovative techniques and methodologies, improving our intervention and evaluations systems. Consequently, it is self-funded by Rodelillo in order to minimize external demands, and at the same time, to empathize with the total reality of the participating families.

After working during 29 years with a variety of accents and demands of those who contribute financially to develop the programs, the Foundation decided to return to its origin, focusing on the most vulnerable families: residents in Santiago Centro and Estación Central, ideally with young children, with their ethnic makeup and particular socio economic and cultural characteristics.

Families are self-defined on its composition and they must have desire to change and progress.

Each family at FARO’s program have the opportunity to experience Rodelillo’s Model. It has a professional going along with them through a personalized intervention over 14 months.

The family members participate in socio-educational and training workshops. We have identified these workshops as essential for the co-construction of a long term family Project, to facilitate the continuity of family’s process for their improvement and realization of their dreams, achieving a better quality of life.

 

 

 

 

 

RIE (Rodelillo Inside the Enterprise)

RIE Projects are developed within companies and focus on enhancing a comprehensive development of employees and their families. They constitute a corporate and innovative version of Rodelillo’s Model. The social programs inside of company are specially made for each company and contribute to the sustainability of enterprises and the Foundation.

Thus, RIE Projects are made from a Corporate Social Empathy perspective in the nearest community of the company: employees and their families. The goal is to transfer Rodelillo’s Model into companies interested in facilitating the development of their workers and families.

We work with those companies sharing a deep interest on their employees’ development and the human group behind them: their families.

Each family participating in the RIE program sets their goals to achieve as part of their family project, which is co-constructed by all its members, with the support of a multidisciplinary team of Rodelillo’s professionals. During 14 months, the Foundation accompanies the participating families for them to make their dreams come true.

RIE intend to provide effective tools to workers and their families, to strengthen and rebuild their emotional ties; improve their dialog capacity; recognize their problems and to be able to visualize and articulate solutions.

At the same time, we promote the reorganization of family’s budget, job training and incorporation of women to work (when they include it as a goal), among other things. This contributes increasing both the identification with the company and job satisfaction while reducing turnover and accidents.

The program’s goal is to improve the quality of life of workers and their families, embracing five areas: intra-family relationships, housing, health, education and work/income generation.  The key to success lies in each family’s defining its own Family Action Plan and, in conjunction with a team of professionals from Rodelillo and companies, in taking the steps indicated to execute its Plan.

For the great majority of participating families, the emphases are on:

  1. utilizing existing bonds of affection among members of the family group as a catalyst to engaging in a joint purpose, as a family, toward realizing self-defined goals and ambitions;
  1. market-sensitive training and/or micro-business creation, typically involving female empowerment, second-income generation and women’s increased visibility within the family and the community;
  1. acquisition of a dignified, definitive housing solutions, whereby each member of a family comes to possess a space of their own.

COMMUNITY PROGRAM

The program Rodelillo in the Community is focused on the closest communities of companies which have made a commitment with the environment and seek to strengthen its social empathy.

Rodelillo Foundation accompanies families living in vulnerable conditions through its Integrated Model. They are among the 60% poorest in the country; have one or more minor children and live close to the company.

During the program Rodelillo in the Community we work implementing our integral Model with many vulnerable families in the communities where businesses are located. Our goals include that they strengthen their family ties, expand their entrepreneurial skills, and get over their challenges, overcoming social vulnerability. At the same time, we facilitate access to training, employment and housing. And besides, we promote family health care and commitment of all members with the educational processes of the family.

In this way, we help companies to transform and consolidate as relevant and recognized social actors, for their contribution to local development and their contribution to the sustainability of their closest communities.

FOCUSED PREVENTION PROGRAM (PPF): Cerro Navia and Renca

Without discrimination of gender or nationality, this Program is focused on self-defined families in their composition, with decision to change and improvement. We work together with families among the 40% poorest of the country and having one or more minor children

Currently we have two on going programs: one in Renca and other in Cerro Navia, which have been awarded through a public concourse, according to Law 20,032 of National Service for Minors. PPF’s programs have been developed under the preventive line, and focus on comprehensive support for families living situations of high social risk or affected by violations of law of medium complexity.

During 18 months our team co-work with each family on a holistically approach, participating on a social and educational process, through workshops to overcome their problems and / or change their mentals maps, removing those family codes which act againts the strengthening of their parenting skills, as pillars of protection and integral growth of children.

Rodelillo Foundation is a partner organization of the National Service for Minors (SENAME) since December 1990, in order to contribute to the growth and development of children,  adolescents and  their families.
