Sobre o Avante Social
Transformar vidas e reescrever histórias é o propósito que move o Instituto Avante Social há mais de 25 anos. Desde sua fundação, construímos uma trajetória pautada pelo compromisso com a dignidade humana, a garantia de direitos e o desenvolvimento social.
Nossa atuação está voltada à gestão e execução de serviços, programas e projetos no eixo socioassistencial, desenvolvidos para responder às diferentes situações de vulnerabilidade e fortalecer a proteção social. Em diferentes territórios e realidades, trabalhamos para ampliar o acesso a direitos, fortalecer vínculos, promover autonomia e criar oportunidades para pessoas e comunidades.
Para isso, estabelecemos parcerias com o poder público e organizações que compartilham do compromisso com uma sociedade mais justa e inclusiva. Atuamos com responsabilidade, transparência e planejamento, buscando qualificar a execução das políticas públicas e gerar impacto social efetivo.
Ao longo dessa trajetória, ampliamos nossa presença e fortalecemos nossa capacidade de atuação, mantendo o mesmo propósito: contribuir para que mais pessoas tenham seus direitos respeitados, sua dignidade reconhecida e novas possibilidades para construir suas próprias histórias.
Over the past 25 years, we have continuously expanded our reach and strengthened our social impact, always guided by the mission of promoting human rights and providing development opportunities to everyone we serve.
Como presidente do Instituto Avante Social, Viviane Mayrink lidera a instituição e atua diretamente no desenvolvimento de projetos sociais que promovem dignidade, autonomia e impacto real nos territórios. Em paralelo, também desenvolve consultoria em gestão de pessoas e liderança, dedicada ao fortalecimento de equipes, à formação de líderes e ao cuidado com o que há de mais essencial em qualquer organização, as pessoas. Sua formação acadêmica — doutora em Administração pela PUC-MG, graduada e mestre em Direito pela UFMG, com MBA em Gestão Empresarial pela FGV — sustenta essa atuação com rigor técnico e visão estratégica, aliando sensibilidade social e excelência na condução de iniciativas que transformam vidas e reescrevem histórias.
Our employees speak for us
“Working at the AVANTE SOCIAL Institute has been an incredible and enriching experience. Over time, I have been able to acquire valuable knowledge that goes far beyond coordinating/managing a project. At SAMU, a project that I have been coordinating since 2020 through AVANTE SOCIAL, I learned the importance of making a difference in people's lives, contributing to SAVING LIVES. What's more, what sets working at the AVANTE Social Institute apart is the constant awareness that our work goes beyond financial value; we have the privilege of contributing to a more just and egalitarian society. Each project developed has a clear social purpose, and this gives deep meaning to our daily work. Through the Institute, I am part of a community that genuinely cares about people's well-being. I am proud to be part of this team committed to social transformation and grateful for the opportunities for learning and impact that this institute provides.”
“My name is Alcione, I am the coordinator of CEM-Barão de Cocais with the shared management of Icismep and Avante Social and I feel very honored to be part of this project that has brought many benefits to the city. I have worked in the health area for 14 years, 2 of them with Avante Social. I can say and affirm that the benefits are great for both users and professionals, such as: more hiring of doctors, acquisition of materials, supplies and objects for our daily lives, signed employment contracts for professionals, dental plans. All of this helps us in our daily lives and contributes to the city being more relaxed. Shared management divides the burden so that it is not so heavy for the government. And with this, we have a satisfactory result because we work with the harmony of projects and processes together and unified. This brings the benefits that we need as employees and users are satisfied with the services and specialties that we have within the city of Barão de Cocais. So, we have only to gain from the management shared. This is a gratifying condition that the municipality has brought to us.”
“I have been working as the coordinator of the Shelter Service in the Halfway House Modality for about a year and a half in the management of the NGO Avante Social. I am proud to have participated in the creation of this Service and to be part of the implementation of this public policy aimed at homeless people in the city of Mogi Mirim. In addition to believing in the culture and values of the NGO, I am very pleased with the trust placed in me and my team, as well as with the support of the managers with frequent feedback. In addition, the autonomy to carry out the work is very significant. I am very grateful for the trajectory, learning and daily joint construction with the entire Avante Social team!”
“Working with the Shelter Service is like building a bridge, opening a road between dreams and reality. It is fighting every day together with our sheltered people for a better future for each of them. I believe that whoever helps one life, helps to help the whole world. Our action is not a drop in the ocean, but an ocean within a drop. I am grateful for the
