IFAP stands for Integrated Family Aid Programme. It is a foster family created around a mother, widowed or abandoned by her husband. Each mother is responsible for 6 to 8 girls aged 5 to 16. Each family lives in an individual house that provides the necessary conditions for the development and education of the girls.

Mothers have a certain amount of autonomy in the organisation of the family’s daily life, but must respect strict rules regarding the education and well-being of the girls in their care.
