The community of Don Orione Guerisaes/Uruguay welcomes about 190 street children and provides them a place to find protection from the local underworld (prostitution, drug dealing, theft, etc.) and where to get basic needs (a warm meal, school attendance, etc.). The Centre also has a number of educational projects, useful for learning a trade such as the computer lab, bakehouse, carpentry workshop etc. The same children receive psycho-educational support to overcome various teething problems, which can be the fitting in the community or the deepest problems, obtained by the disastrous conduct life on the road.
