COMPANY CREATION

The objective of this program is to provide inmates and released inmates the necessary tools and basic knowledge to develop a business proposal from their own life plan.  This can be provided to inmates after recovering their freedom or during deprivation, generating tools of life and a business development plan.

FINANCIAL EDUCATION

This workshop is given inside prisons by people who have recovered their freedom. Inmates and released inmates  have been trained in financial education through a workshop "Strategy for financial decision-making" with emphasis in entrepreneurship, creation and strengthening of productive units and business. Also, they have attended other workshops and have been given personalized advice.

In the time elapsed since the opening of “Casa Libertad” 750 released inmates have been trained in financial education in order to guide them in the proper use and saving of money.
