Cooperativa Sociale I Colori

What Cooperativa Sociale I Colori does

I COLORI Società Cooperativa Sociale is an Italian non-profit social cooperative (cooperativa sociale), founded in winter 1997 and headquartered at Via T. Patini n. 2 in Roseto degli Abruzzi, Teramo province, Abruzzo region (P.IVA 00991370677). The organization operates as a member-owned entity providing integrated social, educational, and care services to vulnerable populations across the Abruzzo region, including children, families, persons with disabilities, and elderly individuals.

The service portfolio spans three primary categories: assistance services (qualified school educational assistance for students with disabilities, home care for disabled and elderly, and customized private assistance); educational services for minors and families (two paritary nursery schools — S. Maria Assunta and Bambin Gesù — educational-recreational centers, home-based educational support, and seasonal offerings including summer seaside colonies and recreational services); and psychological services (neuropsychological evaluations, counseling, and cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy for minors, adults, couples, and families). The cooperative holds ISO 9001 quality management, SA8000 social accountability, and Parità di Genere gender equality certifications from RINA, and received the Premio Paolo Borsellino 2011 for social commitment. Service delivery is conducted in-person at customer locations — schools, private homes, and cooperative-run facilities — by a multidisciplinary staff of approximately 43 employees, with no proprietary digital platform or app.

Revenue is generated through conventions with public entities (regional and local government social programs, school assistance contracts, home care services funded by public subsidies), private arrangements with families and individuals for customized care, and project-based public grants such as the €34,800 contribution from Regione Abruzzo for the 'A SCUOLA, Insieme!' project through the Fondo Sociale Regionale 2023. The cooperative partners with Cooperativa Formatalenti as the lead entity for Servizio Civile (national civil service) volunteer programs and maintains a minimal digital footprint (website and Facebook) with distribution handled through direct service delivery rather than intermediated channels.
