Càritas is an institution with a worldwide presence and is highly recognized for its social action.
Càritas Diocesana de Barcelona is the charitable and social action of the Church of Barcelona.
The mission of Cáritas de Barcelona, as a social action, is to promote the integral development of all people, especially those who are in situations of poverty and social exclusion, so that anyone can live with full dignity.
The realization of this mission is concrete through social action, raising awareness in society and denouncing situations of social injustice.
Càritas Barcelona has 80 years of experience and is the oldest in all of Spain.
The Almeda Supported Flats project was created to address the needs of independent seniors who find themselves in situations of extreme vulnerability and residential exclusion. These seniors are over 65 years of age, with little or no family or social support, and with low incomes that make it impossible for them to access decent housing.
This project aims to provide a decent home for these individuals who retain their capacity for independence but are excluded from the system.
