Central hub
Welcoming and transforming lives in the heart of São Paulo
This is Instituto C’s headquarters and the first hub to be created, back in 2011. It is located in Vila Buarque, in the central region of São Paulo.
We serve families with children and adolescents in situations of social vulnerability from different areas of São Paulo and neighboring municipalities. Our technical team provides services in psychology, employability, education, nutrition and access to rights. There are also conversation circles and other activities covering a range of topics, such as women’s entrepreneurship, immigrant empowerment, productive inclusion and the rights of neurodivergent people.

What the families we serve say:
Simone N.
“I was welcomed, I received love, I was able to rediscover myself as a woman and as a professional, and I overcame my fears. Today I have financial and emotional independence, I have a job, a better quality of life and the confidence to face whatever comes my way.”
