General Residential Care HomeBenissa (Alicante)

The “Benissa” General Residential Care Home is a residential care resource located in the province of Alicante whose purpose is to care for children and adolescents in the child protection system of the Valencian Community.

This residential care centre is a comprehensive, educational care facility for minors under the custody and/or guardianship of the Generalitat who are deprived of a suitable family environment, and whose length of stay depends on what is determined in the administrative decision leading to their admission.

The service, which has a large professional team made up of various professional profiles, with the educational team as the largest group, is characterised by intervention aimed at the social and family integration of the minors based on individualised planning for each case, using a methodology based on the pedagogy of everyday life and complemented by a diverse range of action programmes geared towards normalisation, overall development and positive social integration in the community.

In this way, and from an individualised perspective for each case, embodied in the planning and implementation of the PEI (Individualised Educational Project), the aim is to promote the fullest possible personal development and growth of the children and adolescents in the main dimensions, such as intellectual, emotional, social and health, including an approach to diversity from an inclusive perspective.

The “Benissa” General Residential Care Home has a maximum capacity of 10 places.
