Day-Center
for Children's Social Integration
MISSION
The purpose of this program is to increase the social
integration opportunities of young offenders (under age
children) who have committed a criminal offence but who
are not criminally responsible from the viewpoint of the
law. For this purpose, our objectives are as follows:
- to form and strengthen the pro-social values, attitudes
and skills of young offenders
- to integrate them into society through constructive
activities which take place in their spare time using
available local resources
- to improve the school performance and/or reintegrate
these children into the formal school system
- to improve the competence of parents looking after,
educating and supervising the young offenders.

LOCATION
The Day-Center For Children's Social Integration is situated
at nr. 86 Dragalina Street, 400024, Cluj-Napoca, Cluj County.
BENEFICIARIES
At the moment, 42 young offenders benefit from our Center's
services. These children fit into the next categories: not criminally
responsible, live in Cluj-Napoca, belong to The Abuse and Delinquency
Department of DGJPDC Cluj-Napoca, were minors (under 14 years
old) when they committed the criminal offence (or between 14 and
16 years old if it was proved that they did not have the ability
to discriminate between right and wrong).
Beneficiaries are also the parents of these children, taking
into consideration that an effective intervention in the case
of young offenders' needs also an intervention at the family
level which sets the context within which the child lives.
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
We realize our program's objectives through the following
activities:
- The individual psychological social assistance program (counselling
and individual psychotherapy activities both for children and
their parents)
- Mediation activities with other organizations in order to
obtain social, medical, educational and judicial services from
the local community for these children and parents
- The group therapy program (this is designed to form and strengthen
the young offenders' pro-social conduct)
- The pedagogical assistance program consists of: the reintegration
of these children in the formal school system (for children
who abandoned school and are eligible to re-enter it)
- Coaching activity is for those children who have registered
a failure to graduate school (pupils not completing examinations
or failing to move up to the next level of study). Supervision
homework activity is provided for all children who attend school
courses (these activities take place in small groups)
- The leisure program includes: sport activities, trips during
the holidays, entertainment activities (educational movies,
computer games, shows etc.)
- The material support program consists of: offering school
supplies, writing materials and paying for out-of-school courses,
transportation and meals for child beneficiaries
