Social and labor market integration of inmates


Friday, on 16th July 2010, at 10.00 o `clock and at Sunrise Saloon – SunGarden Hotel from Baciu, Rescue Humanitarian Foundation organised a presentation meeting and disemination of the project „Having a New Dynamic Life Through Employment”. This project is funded by the European Commission through Grundtvig Programme and made in partnership wioth other three institutions from Spain, Portugal and Lithuania.

Apart from presenting and dissemination the results of the project, we deliberated on social and labour market integration of inmates. At this meeting, we were honoured by the presence of officials of public institutions who are involved in this matter: Gherla Penitenciary, Aiud Penitenciary, Probation service,, A.J.O.F.M, Social service department from Cluj Mayor office, as well as other ONG involved in working with inmates: Prison Fellowship Romania, Lord`s Army Association, Dorcas Aid Romania, Preventis Cluj and business people.

It was a successful meeting, because, first of all, we managed to bring together at the same table most of the actors involved in the matter of the reintegration of inmates. We found out the types of activities everyone makes and decided to have a partnership together in future. We have even talked about the idea of creating a Federation to include all who work in the field of social reintegration of inmates, an idea that hopefully, will soon become a reality.

The meeting closed with proposing future projects and with the certainty that this type of meetings would take place more often.
