NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION
40 Years ago...
Icaria Social Initiatives It is a non-profit entity whose objective is to provide support and opportunities for the personal, social and labor progress of children and adults with intellectual disabilities; and for this they have four centers Taiga Special Education School, he Bogatell Occupational Center and special employment centers Icària graphics and Inout hostel.
In the year 1976, Pepe, Victor, Elvira and Mª José Pujol, who worked together at Escola Cam, which closed, decided to start a very beautiful story with some children, among them Pablo, Gregorio, Juan Carlos, who couldn't find where to continue their schooling and thus founded our first service, the Escola d'Educació Especial Taiga . Soon and thanks to the advice of Dr. Wilma Penzo and Ángeles Sepulcre, other students came: Andy Trias, Marc, Aurora, Alberto, Montsità, ... and more teachers were incorporated; Asún, Miguel, Astrid, Cristina Gaspa.The students were excited and preparing for their future, but it was very difficult to find their way.
Mª José and Carmen Rodenas they saw a job opportunity in Graphic Arts and called Toni to come teach the students how to screen print.
They believed they could earn a living with this job, and they believed it so much that they opened the Icària Arts Gràfiques Special Work Center themselves in 1992, its current managers Rosa Pedrero and Enric Martinez…They are adding clients and billing to be able to hire more students with disabilities.
But there was a small group that could not work and that is why we opened the Bogatell Occupational Center with very pioneering work, prioritizing quality of life and planning centered on the person who leads Miriam Paez.
In 2004, and in order to open a work line in services, María José had the idea of setting up a special work center for the Hospitality and Catering industry, and thus the Inout Hostel was born, with Izaskun Quilez and green oriole who already have consolidated this innovative idea.
As a creative application of the incipient marketplace, the annual meeting was born in 2012 Business With Social Value and inter-company Team Building with social value cheers4u.

Taiga is a special education school located in a garden tower in the Sarriá district, for boys, girls and young people from 3 to 21 years old, who need high support to carry out their learning.
Taiga shares some objectives with the most important schools: to gather the necessary conditions for all students to progress, allowing access to an adult life with the maximum level of autonomy that enables the capacities and aptitudes of each one.
Taiga is distinguished from other schools in that it targets students who have significant limitations in normal development and who are characterized by significantly below average intellectual functioning, which occurs together with associated limitations in adaptive areas of daily life. Taiga meets all the requirements for physical spaces contained in Decree 299/1997. We educate them from 3 to 21 years of age and we are aware that we have a great responsibility for the future of our students.
We want to discover their tastes and help them build their life project. We work so that they acquire personal and work habits, the knowledge and skills necessary for a full life according to their abilities.

Our objective is to provide the necessary support to each of the people we accompany, through well-programmed and evaluated activities of daily living included in the Intervention Program, causing personal growth that leads to greater self-determination, greater degree of adaptation in their environments and greater personal satisfaction.
The intervention model that we carry out places its emphasis on the strategies to be adopted to favor the improvement of the quality of life of the boys and girls of Bogatell. Work is done with personal and individual references and their Individual Support Plan is drawn up together with the person, periodically reviewing and evaluating it; we listen to what you want and look at what you need. We develop strategies that reduce the difference between the person's capabilities and the demands of the environment.
This includes training in functional skills, access to technology, the use of natural supports and work in the community. In short, our goal is to provide opportunities to achieve personal results that favor: Well-being, independence, social participation.
