The "three days" dedicated to the general states of volunteering is starting in Sassari . Yesterday, in Sala Langiu, focus on associations in the social sector and civil rights in the presence of the President of the City Council Maurilio Murru, the Councilor for Social Services Gianfranco Meazza and the Councilor for Heritage Rosanna Arru.
Numerous critical issues emerged from the interventions including the lack of a place to stay for different realities .
"We have been active for ten years - reveals Ciro Cau , vice president of Angsa, the association of parents with autism - and at the moment we don't have an office".
Giovanni Pinna of La Sorgente, an important reference for people with disabilities, complains about the consequences of the reform of the third sector: "Very bureaucratic and complex enough to create the death of small associations ".
The Community of Sant'Egidio reports on its commitment to the elderly, especially in the historic centre. «Many - says Chiara Salis - have a housing problem . In addition to that of traveling on roads in bad conditions in which they often get hurt ».
Meanwhile, Sant'Egidio has successfully carried out a co-housing experiment between four elderly women, assisted by volunteers. The imperative of all associations is to network, as Mattia Mulas of the Emporio della Solidarietà and Meazza reiterates.
"I'm sorry, however - underlines the latter - that we make tenders in the social sphere that remain deserted".
Again the commissioner raises the alarm on the underestimation of the fact, even in the Region, that " social problems travel in parallel with health problems. From this point of view we have an emergency for the elderly ».
Tonight, in Largo Infermeria San Pietro from 4 pm, second appointment with the associations of culture, environment, entertainment and amateur sport.
