Associação de Apoio à Infância e Adolescência Nossa Turma
Project Summary
The Nossa Turma project was started in March 1998 with the objective of minimising and even extinguishing child labor in the central market of São Paulo (CEAGESP). The idea was to create a project to take children off the streets, offering them a place to socialize, teach and rediscover their childhood. In the beginning, the project had 194 children. They now have more than 500. The school is supported by PUC University, one of the major universities in São Paulo.
