I am searching high and low for information about this.

Does anyone know anything about this?

Has anyone heard this before?

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Hi! Bill,

Of course, I have heard about this program and others from other countries.
I have met quite a few parties walking the caminos under this program.
I had the chance of having dinner with someone responsible for it when I was hospitalero in Santander on the Camino del Norte.
I think I could find an email address for you if you're interested.

Cheers,
Jean-Marc

The Alba (Oikoten) program is to rehabilitate juvenile deliquents - not really criminals. They have been in operation since the early 1980's and have had a good success rate over the years.

If you are interested in how that works you can contact:

The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
I had wondered if anyone out there has been in touch with someone from the French organization Seuil- that also works with troubled youth and guides on their walk to Santiago, with the hope that it will aide in getting them on the right path.

With Gratitude,
Bill
