In line with METAdrasi\u2019s long-standing belief that Greek language acquisition is essential for integration into society, we inaugurated, on the 13th of January, classes at the newly- established HELIOS Integration Learning Centre in Tavros. The first students have already enrolled in the ILC, showing their enthusiasm and dedication every day. Students attend intensive Greek classes, which are led by experienced language educators. Students also participate in soft skill classes which are facilitated by The International Rescue Committee, METAdrasi\u2019s partner. These classes cover topics such as cultural orientation, job readiness, and life skills. Parents with children ages 2-7 are welcome to leave their children at the ILC\u2019s recreational space for the duration of their classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The HELIOS project aims to support beneficiaries of international protection and works to integrate them into Greek society, offering a variety of services that promote independent living including rental subsidies, integration courses, and employment support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
