La luciole, is an Association of family support for parents and young drug addicts. I had the opportunity to work as a volunteer there for a week. It was a great experience! I would like to tell you my experience there and a little about this organization.
In "la luciole" the community life, healthy schedules, sharing meals, work in the garden, contact with animals, craft workshops and art, relax, listen, allow everyone to rediscover interests, to discover talents and gain confidence in themselves.
It is proposed to participate in short stays from one day to one week.
The house is not a post-cure or a nursing home, but a place to live, to make a link between the history of each and it will build tomorrow.
The objective is rebuilding his life without drugs and to experience that this is possible.
For me it was a striking experience because I could meet young people that are fighting against drugs, and It was incredible they desire to succeed. Apart of that, I took gardening lessons and I could enjoy myself having a contact with nature working in the farm. The staff, Valére and Etienne, they were really very nice and I enjoyed working with them.
