Members of the entity explain that they attended Les Corts Valencianes at the invitation of Compromís for the presentation of a Non-Binding Proposition (PNL) on non-payments to day centers affected by the floods of October 29, 2024. Previously, representatives of the Collective met with the Director General of Family, Childhood, Adolescence and Demographic Challenge, Angélica Such, and the Director General of Social Services, Nacho Grande, to present them with a report from the Legal Clinic of the University of Valencia (UV).

The UV report concludes that the Generalitat's refusal to pay the claimed amounts would lack sufficient legal basis and argues that the regional administration should assume the payment for services provided by the entity after the storm. In this context, the Collective proposes resettlement payment as a possible way for the Conselleria de Servicios Sociales to pay the outstanding amounts.

As its members explain, this formula would allow for economic compensation to the entity for services that, they maintain, continued to be provided to minors and families in vulnerable situations even though they were temporarily carried out outside the contracted premises due to the consequences of the floods. "We are exploring a resettlement payment formula for this situation," they advance from the Collective, insisting that legal action remains "the last resort" if an agreement is not reached.

The conflict dates back to the months following the storm, when the contracted premises where the day centers' activities took place were affected by the flood. Despite this, they assure that they continued to provide social and educational care to minors, adolescents, and families in other spaces in the Parque Alcosa neighborhood, in Alfafar, while the facilities were being rehabilitated. They claim amounts corresponding to services provided between April and September 2025 in one center and between April and December 2025 in the other.

The Collective maintains that throughout the period, it held contacts with regional officials and submitted documentation. A key argument in the UV's legal report is that "there is no formal resolution that suspended or resolved the agreement," thus considering it still valid. The report also invokes the principle of "legitimate trust" and points to a possible "unjust enrichment" of the Generalitat.

For its part, the Conselleria de Servicios Sociales argues that the pending amounts are due to "non-compliance" with the conditions required by the concerted action regulations. Sources from the regional department indicate that, after the temporary exemption (until March 31, 2025) for operating outside authorized premises expired, the Collective "did not request an extension and continued to provide services in locations that did not have technical authorization," according to reports and inspections.

The regional administration assures that it has only paid for periods and places "correctly justified." As of January 2026, the Generalitat had paid approximately 225,000 euros. "Funding is conditional on the actual provision of the service duly justified and in authorized spaces," they state, emphasizing that no procedure has been initiated to terminate the agreement "in the superior interest of the people served."

The Generalitat also claims to have made various lines of aid linked to the storm available to the Collective, which were not requested. While conversations continue, the Collective keeps open the possibility of going to court if the payment is not unblocked.
