Empowering Youth in Care

Empowering Youth in Care (EYC) is an informal group of young people that works within Conservatorio Vincenzo Bugeja (CVB). CVB provides residential care for adolescent girls of any race, class, sexual orientation or religion with psychological, emotional, behavioural and/or social difficulties. Personalized professional interventions consist of individual and group therapy, counselling and intensive youth work interventions within a therapeutic environment. The programme aims at achieving these goals through formal and informal education. This holistic approach service is based on dignity and respect that empowers residents to acquire the necessary social and personal skills to help them reintegrate positively back to society or into their family.
