14 Jules Gilly Street, Nice
Women are still numerous in being exposed to violence, unpredictable personal or family changes, life accidents, and psychological problems. All these difficulties weaken them morally and physically, sending back to them a very degraded image of themselves. This results in a loss of self-confidence, both as individuals and as women, leading to the loss of crucial points of reference.
It is from this observation that the “Well-being Day” project was born within the Emergency Social Reception Center (CAUS) of the Social Action Community Center of Nice.
The goal of this day is to offer these ladies a moment of relaxation and pleasure so that they forget the difficult context in which they evolve. It is also to allow them to reclaim their image, rediscover a femininity often forgotten, open themselves up again to the outside world, and most importantly, to spend a day of exchange and sharing in a festive setting.
In collaboration with numerous partners and associations, including Ecole Balzac, Ecole Make Up Forever, and the associations Accueil Femmes Solidaritรฉ, ACT Actes, Arbre, Ardi, Association Relais de lโIESTS, Dialogues, La Fourmi, Mรฉdiation Citรฉ, Rotaract, Unis-Citรฉ, and Vibration Inside Out, several stands will be offered starting at 9:30 AM: Hairdressing, African Braids, Makeup, Manicure, Cosmetics Workshop, Relaxation, Osteopathy, Makeover,
Henna, Mint Tea.
This day will also be an opportunity to raise these ladies’ awareness about their own health and good hygiene practices, with prevention workshops concerning nutrition, screening, and advice on access to medical careโฆ
A health questionnaire will be given to each participant to involve and encourage them to join a care pathway.
Thanks to everyone’s generosity, the women hosted will leave with clothes: a complete outfit accompanied by an accessory. A buffet will be offered to all participants by the associations Dialogues and Act Actes.
