Lombardy Region allocates 13 million euros to youth support program

The Lombardy Region has approved an additional 2 million euros to bolster the ‘UP – Percorsi per crescere alla grande’ program, bringing the total investment to 13 million euros. The initiative, proposed by Regional Councilor Elena Lucchini, is funded through the FSE+ 2021-2027 regional program.

The project aims to provide early intervention and personalized support for pre-adolescents, adolescents, and young adults aged 11 to 25, as well as their families. It targets various forms of distress, including relational difficulties, academic struggles, social isolation, and personal fragility. The funding will be distributed via vouchers to facilitate access to specialized services and activities designed to address individual needs.
