  1. THE HOUSING PROGRAM A KEY ACTOR IN THE SOCIAL PROTECTION SYSTEM “CHILE SOLIDARIO” FOSIS, CHILE November 2007

  2. The “Puente” Program has defined 53 minimum conditions necessary for an improved quality of life. Upon their graduation, the families should have completed these conditions as a base for their future development. These conditions are related to 7 key thematic categories which are the “pillars” of the bridge: • Personal Identification • Health • Family Dynamics • Education • Housing • Employment • Income

  3. For overcoming extreme poverty, housing is a fundamental pillar: Families must have a home that provides a minimum of comfort and dignity. HOUSING CONCEPT

  4. ¿ WHAT DOES “HABITABLE CONDITIONS” MEAN? For FOSIS, the concept of “habitable conditions” refers to the conditions under which a family inhabits a house. This concept is determined by the physical characteristics of the house and the site, as well as by the psycho-social characteristics of the family, which are expressed in conducts or habits that were acquired during their life time.
