For this reason, different strategies are required to fight\u00a0 the phenomenon of exclusion from the labor market (Cassimati, 1998). The vulnerable social groups who are\u00a0 facing poverty and social exclusion are unable to have the same opportunities with regard to the access to health care, education, in the working environment and of course\u00a0 in social rights.<\/p>\n<p>In order to solve their problems upo to a certain extent, the Association will put in effect\u00a0 a pilot plan for an &#8221; EMPLOYMENT REINTEGRATION GROUP &#8221; for the unemployed \/ poor parents it supports.<\/p>\n<p>The group will be coordinated by a Social Worker and a Psychologist. The aim is to support the parents in such a way that they will, by the means of the assistance\u00a0 provided to them, become autonomous,\u00a0 gain self-sufficiency, gain economic and emotional efficiency, be released from the dependence on charity and to reintegrate into the social development. This group will help unemployed parents to evaluate their strength and potential, develop work confidence and,\u00a0 through their rehabilitation, to socially redefine and reintegrate.<\/p>\n<p>The group will consist of 10 members and will be meeting once a week for a period of\u00a0 two hours.\u00a0 In October families will\u00a0 be informed about the operation of the group.\u00a0 In November the\u00a0 Psychologist and the Social Worker will make a total of 20 individual appointments in order to select the most suitable candidates. In December each of the 10 people selected to join the group will make an individual appointment with the two group coordinators to get detailed information on the subject, the terms of operation of the group and the terms of\u00a0 confidentiality.\u00a0 In January the group&#8217;s goal will be for the participants to acknowledge\u00a0 their capabilities and skills.\u00a0 In February we will be focus on how to find a job the right timing to do so and in March we will evaluate the total effort of the quarter and we will probe as to\u00a0 how close they are to the target of finding a job.<\/p>\n<p>The ultimate goal of the group\u00a0 is that the beneficiaries of the benefits of the Association be\u00a0\u00a0 released from this kind of assistance and are replenished.<\/p>\n<p>By the end of the workshops, the 10 parents belonging to vulnerable social groups (long-term unemployed, illiterate, with health problems and mentally handicapped) will be trained for their financial empowerment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The up-to-date available knowledge and statistical indications (\u0393.\u0393.\u0395\u03a3\u03a5\u0395, 1998-2006) indicate that the lack of opportunities for access to the typical labor market is a result of, among others, the following main conditions and factors: \u2022 Quantitative and qualitative mismatch between the supply and labor market demand \u2022 Lack of basic professional qualifications and skills due [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":3942,"menu_order":70,"template":"","class_list":["post-3944","erga","type-erga","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.activecitizensfund.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/erga\/3944","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.activecitizensfund.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/erga"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.activecitizensfund.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/erga"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.activecitizensfund.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.activecitizensfund.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/erga\/3944\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4552,"href":"https:\/\/www.activecitizensfund.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/erga\/3944\/revisions\/4552"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.activecitizensfund.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3942"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.activecitizensfund.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3944"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
