Pianoterra ETS Association
The Pianoterra ETS Association supports families living in
economically and socially precarious conditions, at risk of isolation and
marginality, in order to protect the health and
well-being of minors in particular.
The
association works together with families with the aim of intervening at
an early stage and promoting, right from pregnancy, conscious and positive
parenting, counteracting the effects of poverty and hardship on the
psycho-physical development of children and adolescent.
The name Pianoterra indicates the perspective of the
approach: a view at human height that allows us to understand the daily
difficulties of the weakest people, but also their resources and potential.
Today, Pianoterra ETS has offices in Rome, Naples and Castel
Volturno (province of Caserta), and collaborates with hundreds of other
entities (third sector organisations, social and health services, schools and
universities, companies and private individuals to create innovative and
sustainable projects and interventions that focus on the care and wellbeing of
the most fragile.
