A total of 285 organizations have participated in the programs and services to promote quality employment managed by the City Council of El Prat de Llobregat. To thank them for their support, the "Companies for Employment" conference was held on November 22, where the importance of collaboration between the business community and the City Council to facilitate access and permanence of people living in the municipality to quality employment was also highlighted.
Among the distinguished organizations, Envera received for the second consecutive year the award for its participation in the 30+ and Fem Formació labor inclusion and insertion programs. The former is aimed at the employment of unemployed people over 30 years of age and the latter for the labor market insertion of unemployed young people under 25 years of age and in a situation of social exclusion.

executives of Discrecional G-18, a group made up of six leading companies in the road passenger transport sector, have presented Envera's general manager, Pedro Sobrino, with a donation of 10,000 euros for the Association's social purposes.

Discrecional G-18, which includes the companies SAMAR, Maitours, Nájera, Juliá, Vera and Grupo Ruiz, makes possible the route service that Envera's beneficiaries use daily to get to the Integral Disability Center or to go on excursions.

Envera and Fundación MAPFRE collaborate in the labor market insertion of people with intellectual disabilities through the program Juntos Somos Capaces (Together We Can), which aims to help people with intellectual disabilities and mental illness get a job.

This program, promoted by Fundación MAPFRE and to which Envera has adhered since 2012, seeks to "promote relations between companies and social entities from an innovative approach in terms of equity and social cohesion" in the field of Competitive Social Responsibility (CSR).

For most people, the summer season evokes rest and holiday retreat with which many want to leave aside, at least temporarily, work and studies. This is not so for the people who make up Envera, an association that for more than 40 years has been accompanying people with intellectual disabilities throughout their life cycle, providing them with Support and Care Services and employment.

For this non-profit organization, summer is a time of opportunities. So much so that in recent weeks and only in its delegation of Gran Canaria, seven people with disabilities have accessed a job in ordinary companies.

The Mayor of Colmenar Viejo, the Councilor for Sports, the general director of Special Olympics Spain, the managing director of Special Olympics Madrid and the general director of Envera, presented this morning at the City Hall the II Special Olympics Tournament of women's basketball to be held at the Comprehensive Disability Center of Envera from 23 to 25 November and in which fifty athletes with intellectual disabilities from Castilla y León, Castilla - La Mancha, Catalonia and Madrid will participate.

The Tournament, which also includes a rhythmic gymnastics exhibition, is part of the Special Olympics Women and Disability project, which for Envera is also a "double priority".

The President of the Government of the Canary Islands, Fernando Clavijo, visited this Wednesday the headquarters of Envera in Tenerife to learn first-hand about the Agro-Envera program, a training project in alternation with employment in which 15 young people with disabilities over 30 years of age participate. Upon his arrival, the president was received by the director of the Canary Employment Service, Sergio Alonso; its deputy director of training; Dunnia Rodríguez; the mayor of the City Council of Tacoronte, Álvaro Agustín Dávila; the president of Envera, José Antonio Quintero; and the director of the Envera delegation in Tenerife, Elisabeth Martín.

The president of the Community of Madrid, Ángel Garrido, presided over the inauguration of the Envera Building together with the general director of the Montemadrid Foundation, Cristóbal Sánchez, and the president of Envera, José Antonio Quintero. The new center, located in Bahía de Pollensa street, in Madrid, has 48 residential places with an occupational center, of which 45 are public, as well as training classrooms and a job placement service for people with intellectual disabilities.

After verifying full compliance with the 9 Principles of Transparency and Good Practices, Fundación Lealtad has renewed the Accredited NGO Seal to Envera - Asociación de Empleados de Iberia Padres de Personas con Discapacidad (Association of Iberia Employees Parents of People with Disabilities).

In this sense, as José Antonio Quintero, president of Envera, explains, "transparency and good practices are the cornerstone of Envera, a value inherent to its raison d'être. We must be accountable to our donors, patrons, users and benefactors, not only for the fulfillment of our mission through a service of the highest quality, but also for the legality, ethics and efficiency that must govern the use of every last resource. Therein lies our credibility and our reputation".
