Samusocial Peru

Our Mission

Samusocial Peru is a non-profit organization created in 2004 to fight against social exclusion by promoting the right to health and a life without violence, providing comprehensive care that goes from emergency to rights restoration through a network job. We propose to build a bridge between the community and public services to reinforce, support, and improve the functioning of the care system, making it more inclusive. We focus our work on medical-psychosocial care, the fight against anemia and violence, and strengthening the soft skills of children, adolescents, and women in vulnerable situations.

Action estrategies Going to meet the most vulnerable people who no longer have the strength or the will to go towards common law structures or towards any other association. Placing them out of danger according to the medical psychosocial emergency procedures. Facilitating the referral of these people towards the public services thanks to a network of institutional and private partners. Conducting research and advocacy work directly or indirectly related to the problem of social exclusion.

Methodology to reach out to the most excluded Help mobile team: the HMT makes daily rounds to reach out to the population, provide medical-psychosocial care, and refer them to appropriate institutions. In addition, they periodically organize mobile clinics in the community. Day care center: it provides a safe space during the day where women and children who are victims of domestic violence receive personalized accompaniment. Partner support: trengthening of partners' capacities through training and networking through coordination and concertation meetings. Awareness and advocacy: through lectures, workshops or campaigns, the community is made aware of its rights, administrative procedures, and preventive actions are offered. This work is complemented by advocacy, making it possible to alert public authorities and raise public awareness of the problem of exclusion.
