Cooperativa fuori dal Sommerso is a not for profit organisation founded in Mesagne (in Puglia, South of Italy) in 2001; it has a staff of 21 professionals and is active in the field of adults, active aging, social and job integration of vulnerable target groups (in particular person with disability).

Our mission is to enhance the quality of life of seniors by maintaining their independence and dignity

Our supportive services help seniors meet their daily living needs at home, which greatly impacts their health and ability to remain living independently. With community-based assistance, seniors can thrive at home where they are happiest. We are the safety net.

SOMMERSO offers a vital support system for vulnerable elderly with limited options who would otherwise not have access to or be able to afford services.

In particular our main services are: home help, meal distribution, adults workshop. We may be able to refer disabled persons to wheelchair accessible housing or transportation or other services in our city. In addition, periodically we organize recreational events in order to provide the opportunity for further interaction and socialization among our target group.
