DIFFERENTIATION

The target group in CIMI Medina Azahara consists of male juveniles from 14 to 18 years old. Admission can be extended up to 22 years in certain cases. This regional placement facility is specifically designed for young individuals who have become involved with the youth justice system.

At CIMI Medina Azahara, residents are empowered to schedule their own appointments, taking on a sense of responsibility and autonomy. The focus in the facility is on providing meaningful activities both inside the facility and in the community, depending on the zone in which the young person resides. The residents engage in various activities such as attending school or participating in employment opportunities.

COMMUNITY-INTEGRATION

The name of the facility refers to the archaeological site, Medina Azahara, which is an archaeological site that showcases the ruins of the palace city built during the 10th century by the Umayyad Caliphate of Córdoba. Though not geographically a part of a community, the idea is to integrate with the community as much as possible.
