Objectif(s)	Provide a stable response to socially vulnerable refugee women. This is accomplished by the following steps: • Accompany and facilitate the integration process and exercise of their economic, social and cultural rights • Ensure minimum national standards of care in public services • Develop a work proposal leading to processes of self-sufficiency and autonomy.
Results/Impact	• Implementation of a public policy management on mental health issues • Training for leveling studies, employment history, job seeking plan • Documentation and certification of technical and higher education studies, and children • Housing allowance before the end of the intervention process.
Why is this considered a Good practice?	Through this program, the local integration of vulnerable women resettled in Chile has been achieved. The program is sustainable by the involvement of local municipalities.
