Esserci is a cooperative founded in 1986 in Turin. It manages various social services, including housing support, social and cultural promotion, healthcare and social welfare prevention, rehabilitation, inclusion initiatives, and job placement.
With 38 years of experience, Esserci has successfully developed numerous projects, positively impacting thousands of beneficiaries. The cooperative operates in areas such as social agriculture, support for women in vulnerable situations, disability care, neurodegenerative diseases, social withdrawal, educational poverty, and youth and migrant integration.
Its key services include support for children and families, social accompaniment, housing for mothers with children, addiction prevention programs for young people, and day centers for at-risk youth and individuals facing social exclusion.
With the support of Rigenera, Esserci is launching two new projects:
- WellFood: Creation of an app for purchasing food products that integrate items from the fruit and vegetable supply chain of Ceste di Rapa/Humus Job with the product range of Econaturasì (dry goods, processed foods, dairy, and hygiene products) offered at affordable prices.
- Cecchic’è: Opening of an apartment for individuals with mild-to-moderate intellectual disabilities, aimed at promoting their integration into the workforce.
These projects align with Esserci’s mission of creating opportunities for individuals by promoting active participation in social, working, and economic life, and reinforcing its commitment to inclusive and sustainable community development.
