Envera - Asociación de Empleados de Iberia Padres de Personas con Discapacidad, has launched the Envera Clean Room in its Special Employment Center, integrated in the Integral Disability Center that this social entity has in Colmenar Viejo (Madrid).

With this innovative project, which has the support of the ONCE Foundation and AEDIS, Envera continues the social mission it has been developing for more than 42 years: the creation of stable and supported employment for people with intellectual disabilities, thus promoting their social and labor inclusion.

On the occasion of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, Envera organized a cineforum on the documentary short film El vuelo de Michael that tells the story of the world's only terrevuelo commander, Antonio Martín "Michael", an Envera beneficiary and multifaceted artist whose enthusiasm for audiovisual creations has led him to become in 2018 the first photographer with intellectual disabilities to be part of the prestigious PHotoEspaña festival with his exhibition Al borde del aeropuerto (On the edge of the airport).

The cineforum was held at the Casa de Vacas cultural center in El Retiro (Madrid), and was attended by the delegate of the Area of Families, Equality and Social Welfare of the Madrid City Council, Pepe Aniorte; the filmmaker Fernando Colomo; the head of corporate social responsibility (CSR) of Iberia, Alba Barrantes; the protagonist of the short film, Antonio Martín "Michael"; and its director, Jesús de Frutos.

Sapos y Princesas, a media specialized in helping people committed to education through the dissemination of educational, cultural, leisure and universal values, and Envera, a non-profit organization that works for the social and labor integration of people with intellectual disabilities, have signed an agreement to promote the integration of children with intellectual disabilities through the regular publication of articles on disability and childhood as well as the dissemination of activities that promote inclusion and equal opportunities.

The Canarian Association for Psychosocial Rehabilitation (ACRP) and Fundación MAPFRE Guanarteme have given recognition to Envera for the work it carries out in Gran Canaria for the training, employment and labor insertion of people with mental illness. 21 people with mental illness have obtained a job in 2019 thanks to the collaboration between Envera and ACRP in Gran Canaria.
