THE RIGHT TO CLOSE THE TOWN CENTRE YOUTH In support of those young people longer have an environment to express their talents in the creation of ideas and those young people who can no longer refer to a safe place to meet and grow together.
who frequent the youth center of San Pietro di Stra, make it known that:
- on 25 March '10, we received notification from the Directorate of social issues and Mr youth issues. Stefano Valentini, the imminent closure of the Centre through the page of the CAG on Facebook (symptomatic choice raises the question of whether or not there is an official communication by the way), the words were as follows:
"The youth center will suspend the activities of Stra animation for a few months starting from April 1, 2010. It is evaluated and a decision a little 'hard to take but was chosen in order to propose the best business after the summer. "
Bearing in mind that our previous contacts with the new administration were almost non-existent and therefore the basis for judging our work as a whole lacked the choice of common presented itself in the eyes of all of us as something imposed from above without possibility of contradiction.
Anxious to find out what soggiacesse behind the 'unexpected dictates we presented ourselves in front of Valentino with two simple questions, almost lapidary:
1) What is the connection between the suspension of , until a later date, the youth center and its improvement?
2) what are the reasons why our program of activities for the year 2010, by unilaterally us with a view to creating a necessary dialogue, has been defined Lett. "Inconsistent" and what are your suggestions for improvement (assuming such exist)?
Following a series of meetings with Mr. Councillor, in which he has proven to know little, if at all, the activities and initiatives carried out by us kids in the Youth Centre in its 6 years of activity, we did not get any answer that can be defined as such, Instead we witnessed justificationism improbable stunts, a "shared responsibility" and stunned reactions of an administrator of the municipality that he did not expect the very young is that he could answer the charges so ready and serious.
Meanwhile, regardless of how much elapsed, the activity of the CAG has been suspended: the children are deprived of a safe meeting place, disrupts interpersonal relationships developed between those attending and that Worse, the young man is de-legitimized itself and as such, implicitly excluded from the path of "improvement" of the Centre.
hoping for a reconsideration of the action so far held by the Administration,
"Let us all unite to give back space YOUNG! "
