Associacao de Apoio as Criancas

Who are we and what we do:


  • We join forces with others
  • We are commuted to the defense of the rights of the child and adolescent.
  • Our action places the child and adolescent at the center of everything.
  • We see children as bearers of revelation.
  • In local communities and on the streets we are side by side with children.
  • With believe in life as a fundamental value.
  • We live and act on the street, in schools, in workshops, in the neighborhood, in the Human Rights Council and in the political area.


Our work as social educators puts us in risk. Every day we face surprises and unexpected situations. We believe that our action makes a positive contribution toward changing the inhuman situation of these children and youth because of the bonding that takes place between them and the educators. This bonding opens up the possibility of living with dignity. In teaching, we learn. We announce the good news in abundance.
