On June 27th a group of three women: Maria Elena Landa Abrego, Maria Elena Calderón de Gomez, and Consuelo Compeán viuda de Bárcena, that had worked with inmattes as volunteers, decided to found Ipoderac as a support alternative for children and youth that had suffered from social exclusion. 

With great will and after many efforts, they managed to acquire the land where the institution stands this days and to start the construction of the first house. Nowadays Ipoderac counts with six houses, each one with capacity to host twelve kids, two volunteers and a resident educator; as part of the work formation model: a herd of goats, a cheese dairy, a workshop for the production of soap, a carpentry, a greenhouse to produce tomato and land for the production of vegetables for self consumption; additionaly there is a computer lab, an educative psicology workshop a psicological therapy room and a general kitchen plus a soccer field and a basquetball court.
