Fattoria Sociale
il Ponte

Il Ponte is a social cooperative that offers personal services consisting of people making their skills and resources available to reach common goals. Il Ponte promotes the well-being of people with social, psychic and intellectual disabilities at the highest degree. Since it was created Il Ponte relies on the “community” and “relation” concepts and sees them as indispensable.

The social cooperative Il Ponte aims, on the base of individual peculiarities, to build up paths able to develop social, residential and occupational autonomy. To achieve this Il Ponte relies on different strengths such as relationships, working with the nature and residential experience. Il Ponte has a solid connection with local, public and private institutions in order to promote the mental health of those who are hosted and the knowledge of them among the population.
The farm is a fundamental aspect of our reality. We have alpacas, donkeys, goats and plenty of other animals whom our hosted learn to care for. Through the farm, they can develop working skills, communication skills and the ability to stay together.
