“CONNESSIONI EDUCATIVE” a system to create new alliances be-tween family, school, and community

Introduction. The project intends to strengthen the cognitive and relational skills of minors in vulnerable conditions, stimulating a new educational alliance between school, family, ed-ucational services, and territory. Extra-curricular laboratory activities were carried out to strengthen cognitive, relational, and creative skills and professional and experiential courses for minors aged 14-17. Integrated paths were created between school, educational services, and the territory for minors in conditions of family educational fragility, who were support-ed through the experimentation of multifamily therapy. Finally, two counseling spaces have been activated where thematic meetings have taken place for teachers and parents. The re-cipients are approximately 600 minors and their families. The project is currently underway and will be completed by October 2024. Our lab is leading the impact assessment part with the interested parties. Methods. The data collection is still ongoing and consists of three different parts: 1) online questionnaire for everyone, to measure the effectiveness of the actions undertaken in the pro-ject with adolescents, educators/operators, and parents; 2) semi-structured interviews with educators and operators with roles of responsibility in the projects; 3) focus groups with par-ents. Data collection was carried out subject to the approval of the university bioethics com-mittee. Results and Discussion. Interviews carried out (10 with operators/educators) have been analyzed using T-Lab and Netminer for social network analysis (Co-occurrence, Neighbor and Centrality Analysis). Preliminary results show how participants took part in actions in-volving different actors, where various positive changes were found, such as the passage from the total isolation and demotivation of some adolescents to the construction of new friendly relationships and the birth of new interests. However, these changes have also been found in families, who through some activities have discovered a new world in which they can interact with other parents, feeling less isolated in their difficult situation and receiving support from efficiently trained figures.
