A hostel will be built in Odessa, where people with special needs will be able to work. This initiative belongs to the public organization “Special Youth”.

The idea came from parents whose children have certain mental disorders. They are studying at a rehabilitation center located on Breus Street.

The problem is that the pupils of the center become unnecessary for anyone. When they turn 18, they are left to their own devices. However, most of them have no family and support. It is these people who need to give hope for a brighter future. It is necessary to show that society needs them, that they are not outcasts!

Vitaly Verro, co-founder of the Public Organization, believes that it is important for these young people to feel needed and fulfilled. They need social projects in which they can reach their potential.

How the idea was born

Parents and social activists thought for a long time how to help young people with mental disabilities find their destiny. You need to find a way to help realize your potential. Once, one of the parents of those children who are undergoing treatment at a rehabilitation center saw a small report on television. It was about a German hostel where only people with disabilities worked. I liked the idea. After discussion, it was decided to open a similar hostel in Odessa.

How an idea turns into business

First of all, it was decided to seek help from the city authorities. Social activist Inna Verro said that they had sent their request to Tatyana Markova, director of the department of culture and tourism of the city council. Markov liked the idea. She immediately suggested that the initiators choose a suitable room for preferential rent. Inna Verro indicated that the premises of one of the kindergartens would be perfect for their purposes. Now in Odessa there are a lot of abandoned buildings of children's educational institutions. One of those is great for hosting construction.

Inna Verro said that the project of the future institution is already ready. A rough plan was prepared by the artist of the rehabilitation center V. Chorba. The working name of the hotel is already ready. I plan to call her "Dream." The architect of the building will be the base of the barriers. It will be accessible to all people with disabilities.

In addition to the hostel, a souvenir shop and a bakery will be equipped. All products and sweets are made by the hands of pupils of the rehabilitation center. The important thing is that prices will be affordable for people of different social status.

Inna claims that the main goal is not the search for material benefits, but the opportunity to give hope for a brighter future for people with mental disabilities. Moreover, the work will be provided not only to those who have parents, but also to full orphans.

In order to achieve this goal, the initiators are ready to spend their own money. They hope for the support of patrons, sponsors, city and state authorities.

Inna herself understands the whole tragedy of the fate of disabled children. She has a very difficult fate. The woman has two children. Doctors diagnosed mental disorders in the eldest daughter. The youngest girl has cerebral palsy. In addition, 7 years ago, Inna herself got into a terrible accident. After that, she was confined to a wheelchair. But she did not give up and continued her work. She is a great designer, whose work is housed in the most famous exhibition venues in the world.

We will observe the implementation of this idea. We will try to help find people who want to invest their own money in the structure of the hostel.
