Hundreds of children, teenagers, volunteers, professionals and supporters attend Cometa every day. Cometa is a place where one can grow, study, work and learn through experience. The educational method is made of sheer passion for life and thorough attention for each individual and his or her personal history.
Fostering: A story led by an experience
Based on the experience of two foster families in Como, Cometa was founded in 2000 as a network of foster families, and has now developed into a broad organisation offering sustain and an encompassive range of social, health and education services to both children, their natural families and foster families.
Education: Hospitality is the key to educate
In the children-care centre “La Casa per Crescere” (Home to grow up), children can do their homework as well as cultural and sport activities after school.
The Centre is instrumental in reducing school drop-outs, and improving children’s educational attainments. Services have been set up for children and young people with learning disabilities, where a multi-disciplinary team including healthcare professionals, communication specialists and speech therapists offer personalized help to each child in order to facilitate his/her education path.
