Social development

Social Development is one of the guiding principles of the State Centers of Youth and Children Orchestras of Bahia (NEOJIBA). The members of these groups, in contact with the collective musical work of excellence, are guided to discipline, effort, concentration, the methodical search for their goals and various reflections that seek to promote their social integration. In this training process, children, adolescents and young people feed back into their daily lives through the expansion of these experiences to their family and social life.

To accompany this process, NEOJIBA has a Social Development sector formed by professionals in the areas of Social Work and Psychology, who provide individualized and / or group psychosocial care services to members and their families. Dialogue, listening, interpretation and analysis are fundamental elements for understanding the aspects that involve the social reality of this audience.

The sector also mobilizes a network of volunteers and private sector partners, who provide free assistance to families and children in situations of vulnerability in the area of ​​health and psychological care.
