In today’s lesson, we discussed the services provided by Caritas, which offers assistance to individuals facing social issues, particularly those affected by drug use. The mission of Caritas is to reduce poverty in society and promote social justice through Christian values. Their Harm Reduction Shelter is the only facility of its kind in Malta, supporting clients in detoxification and rehabilitation in a non-clinical, homely environment, thereby addressing both drug abuse and homelessness. Overall, Caritas directly benefits Maltese society by alleviating pressures on legal and medical systems through its comprehensive support services.
