A route that starts from Turin and arrives in Naples and Palermo …
The project is aimed at supporting the active inclusion of young people by teaching them how to make ice cream … the good one.
The project focuses on the achievement of Unaccompanied children’ autonomy through the integrated temporary guardianship.
The first step will be the Turin Gelateria Popolare+ experience, in order to establish a franchising brand to be adapted to the local areas’ peculiarities and set up courses addressed to the children for the acquisition of the needed skills and schedule appropriate apprenticeships.
As regards their accommodation, the project partners have joined the Housing first (HF) project where the place of residence is seen as a starting point and not the final objective of a growing process.
On top of these, the language autonomy and relational and social inclusion processes will give these young people the tools to play a more and more active role in the host community.
The inclusion process includes the participation of guardians, foster and support families, and the creation of procedures shared by the members of the integrated guardianship network.

The ice-cream parlours’ customers will give their contribution for the creation of both an apprenticeship and scholarship for one of the kids who will be included in the following projects:
CRAFT TEACHING
Senior ice-cream makers will transfer their skills to the young trainees who can then participate in job trainings or be hired in workplaces.
HOUSING AUTONOMY
According to the Housing First model, the single’s expectations and requirements will be taken into account.
SOCIAL INCLUSION
Relationship care and bringing people together around the ice-cream parlour seen as a meeting point.
LANGUAGE INCLUSION
Italian language learning for communication in the workplace.
