In this short paper we want to return the experience of a training internship carried out in collaboration with the Professional Education Course of Padua, based in Rovigo, and the day care center run by Caritas in Vorarlberg, one of the nine federal states of Austria. In Austria, the figure of the Professional Health Educator does not exactly match that of Italy. This aspect proved to be a challenge for both the trainee subject and the host service realizing as an outcome a humanistic contamination for the one, and design in educational terms for the other. The Caritas Café project where the internship took place is a space where people with substance addictions find shelter. The main purpose is to provide information and aids for harm reduction.
