Praha: Low-threshold clubs

The Smíchov Low-Threshold Centre for Children and Youth supports children and young people in difficult social situations who need help resolving their issues.

We provide a safe and meaningful space where young people can spend free time constructively, with a focus on their future and motivation to pursue the highest possible education. This gives them a better chance of finding decent work and reduces their risk of falling into negative behaviors such as substance abuse, criminal activity, or social exclusion.


What We Offer

  • A safe environment where through games, crafts, and preventive programs, children expand their horizons and build social and language skills—as well as initiative, fine motor skills, creativity, and imagination.
  • Social counseling is available to help children and adolescents navigate complex situations and solve what matters most to them.
  • We organize multi-day activities, including summer and winter camps, day camps, workshops, and events in collaboration with other organizations.
  • All services are provided free of charge and anonymously.


Our Approach

Staff follow PBIS (Positive Behavior Intervention and Support) methods and nonviolent communication, focused on each client's individuality. We frequently use experiential education and non-formal learning methods.
