The City of Alhama de Murcia, through its Department of Social Welfare, has promoted the creation of the Coordination Table of Employability of Vulnerable Groups, in which various organizations and entities that are working in this area and have a presence in the territories of Alhama and Librilla.
The objective is to improve coordination mechanisms with the different organizations and entities that carry out actions with those people and groups that have a more difficult situation for their access to the world of work.
Although there were already numerous coordination initiatives (meetings, case follow-up, collaboration in the detection of needs and planning, etc.) between these entities and organizations, now a further step is taken in networking, putting the person as center and link of these actions.
Recently the third meeting of this table has taken place, which so far comprises the municipal areas of Social Welfare, Employment and Equality, the office of the SEF, the Federation of Mental Health - FEAFES-, the Collective for Social Promotion El Candil , Spanish Red Cross, Abraham Project Association, Labor Foundation for Construction and Social Services and Local Development of the City Council of Librilla.
During the meeting, in addition to addressing the issues of their own work, a visit was made to the facilities of the Labor Foundation so that the technical staff of the agencies knew first hand the space and training offer that this entity has.
The work contents of this technical group are broad and will be addressed in successive meetings, highlighting those detailed:
· Make a diagnosis of needs to plan and coordinate the actions of all agencies.
