Structure

CCCCCE is an umbrella organization for the youth work in the Catholic Catalan dioceses.[3] It is structured as a confederation of several distinct entities that work in leisure education, associative promotion, and social education across different Catalan dioceses. Rather than a single hierarchical organization, it functions as a secretariat that aggregates federations of Christian leisure centers (Centres d'Esplais Cristians), training schools (Escoles de Formació, Escoles de l'Esplai), and service-providing entities (Serveis Colònies de Vacances). Its primary components include the Moviment de Centres d'Esplai Cristians Catalans (MCECC), the Fundació Esplai Girona - Mare de Déu del Mont, the Fundació Verge Blanca, the Fundació Santa Maria de Siurana, the Fundació Croera, and the Fundació d'Esplais Santa Maria de Núria, all of which maintain their own operational structures while coordinating under the CCCCCE umbrella.[4]
