The objective of the Social Assistance Unit is to provide assistance and advice to any University employee who, at any given moment, may be faced with a personal or socio-family problem and requires intervention.
With the aim that the entire university community has knowledge of all those instruments with which the Generalitat de Catalunya and other public bodies work to ensure the welfare of all citizens, from the Social Assistance Unit a collection of links has been made to provide information on groups such as people with dependency, the disabled, young people, women, families, people with addictions or people who have gone through an experience of pain.
