Protecting children, building the future!

In the Atrapasueños/Externado program, we support children ages 6 to 11 who, despite living with their families or support networks, face risks that threaten their well-being. We offer them a safe space on an alternate day from school, with comprehensive care, guidance, and activities that strengthen their life skills.
