“As a social worker, I had the pleasure to work closely with professionals working at Dar Leopoldo. I am highly grateful for their sterling work purposely to support and improve the service-users’ well-being. Their humane approach with clients reflects fundamental values of social work such as : empathy, non-judgmental attitudes and integrity. Their work with the clients communicates a sense of worth and dignity. This is what differentiates between being in a shelter solely to have your basic needs met and being in a shelter that feels like a temporarily home. I believe that the care and warmth professionals at Dar Leopoldo show, bring about further opportunities so that the service-users can feel empowered, supported and regain independence.”
