Week one



When we heard our mission for the first time, we where quite overwhelmed. Organising two workshops (one about intake and one about support plan) AND a seminar about teenage mothers isn't an easy job to do. Especially when you only have four weeks to do it.

That is why we had a slow start. The greater part of our first day was spent on getting to know one another and learning some facts about Roumania, CCF Poplii fara soti and vzw Oradea.

(Later on, we will post some information about ourselves, so that the partners in Roumania, Lier or any other place can get to know us too.)

The rest of the week was spent searching information. We visited a CKG (wich is quite similar to a CCF) and learned a lot about intake and support plans. We also started searching literature about teenage mothers. We are now trying to sort all of the information that we found.

The first week has been really chaotic, but we are starting to see where we are heading for. All of the pieces of the puzzle are falling into their place, but we still have lots to do. On the agenda for next week is:



  1. a brainstorm about the seminar

  2. research about teenage mothers

  3. making a first draft of the seminar

  4. a brainstorm about the workshops

  5. lots of practical things like preparing the budget, a contract meeting with Patrick Bellinck, adjusting the workshops, preparing some visits...
