Feeling at home<\/strong><\/h3><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

\"\"<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

I am Rita and I have been working in ASCS for nine years!<\/b> Thinking about it more I feel like I’ve been in this forever because my greatest passion has become my job!<\/p>\n

I am a social worker and as of today I coordinate the Rome offices of ASCS.<\/p>\n

The first meeting took place in the sunny land of Capitanata, in 2010, with one of the people who, in my opinion, best embodies the charism of the congregation, Archangel.<\/p>\n

He would come weekly to meet with migrants in the CARA in Borgo Mezzanone (what I call “my baptism of fire”) and he would also meet with us who, in that place that had little that was welcoming, were trying to bring a little beauty and humanity.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After various work experiences and while watching the work of ASCS from afar, I was offered to help open Scalabrini House 634 in Rome.<\/a><\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

Perhaps I did not initially imagine the power we had in our hands, but the years have shown it clearly to me.<\/p>\n

In 2018 I decided to leave for a period of international volunteering and, as only ASCS and the Scalabrinian Congregation knows how to do, I was welcomed in Tijuana to the Migrant House for a period of service.<\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I wish ASCS to remain as beautiful as it is and to continue to be hope for the people who are lucky enough to know it<\/b> (volunteers, migrants, professionals) and to always give the confidence that I have felt daily even in the least simple moments.<\/p>\n

A thank you, huge, for giving me the opportunity to “blossom” professionally and continue to be a stimulus for my growth.<\/p>\n

ASCS will forever be home for me!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
