Our Programs

Every week, we walk alongside migrant families through education, integration, and community in Barcelona and Mataró.

Puente's programs are designed around the real needs of the families we serve — building confidence, belonging, and opportunity through consistent relationships, educational support, and practical accompaniment.

All programs are free for participants and run weekly throughout the year. We work primarily with migrant and refugee families from North Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, and other displaced communities living in Catalonia.
