Coordinadora Infantil y Juvenil de Tiempo Libre de Vallecas is a nonprofit association created by organizations and associations working with children and youth at risk of social exclusion in Vallecas and Ciudad Lineal districts, in the south-east of Madrid, Spain. Coordinadora gathers 22 associations, 500 volunteers and more than 2,000 children and youngsters are involved in their projects. Our mission is to strengthen and to encourage the networking of social organizations in Vallecas, to promote social transformation, and to advocate for the development of children, youth, and their families. Volunteer’s activity will be developed within 6 of our entities: Barró Association Jara project, Barró Association Chapotea project, Cultural Association San Pablo, Primera Prevención Association, Creando Huellas Association, and CityCentro Association. These associations have in common the community work and social intervention that they do in the city through different educational projects aimed to children, teenagers, young adults, and families. Tasks of the volunteers will be related to support the daily work of the associations such as their tutoring program, leisure time activities, workshops, and summer camps. The volunteers will also support the office of Europa Joven Madrid, an information and cultural center related to European mobility and European projects run by the Madrid City Hall.
