Our focus is mainly based on Psychiatric Rehabilitation (PSR) principles and models. Our services include housing facilities for more than 300 clients and daily support services to many. More than 110 employees assist with the day to day running of the facilities. Our facilities range from small "New Generation Homes" within communities, to more structured and supportive facilities in the city and on a "farm", as well as a frail care centre.
