The structure of Pastoral da Criança national, state, diocese, parish and community coordination is the simplest and fastest possible. Approximately 75% of the necessary resources are managed directly by the regional dioceses, which forward it to parishes and the communities according to their needs. The diocese coordinators are accountable to the National Coordination which, centralizing the paper work and decentralizing activities and resources, keeps computer databases for all activities, allowing the program sponsors and financing entities easy access to all information about the scope of the programs and the use of resources. The promptness by Pastoral da Criança ensures successful actions, allowing thousands of children and mothers to be assisted throughout the country, at very low costs.
