Chráněné bydlení Domov - Sdružení Neratov

SHELTERED HOUSING DOMOV

Sheltered housing Domov in Neratov has been operating since 1998. We are a residential social service providing support to people with reduced self-sufficiency due to mental disabilities whose situation requires the assistance of another person. Our goal is to help these people live free, independent, and responsible lives, striving to maintain ties between users, their families, relatives, and their natural environment so that they can live like their peers, upholding the principles of human dignity and independence. All this is supported by a team of social service workers in the friendly family environment of the mountain village of Neratov, which is also a place of pilgrimage.

MISSION SERVICES PROVIDED

- To provide people with mental disabilities with an appropriate level of support in sheltered housing for a limited period of time, with the aim of achieving the highest possible level of independence and practicing skills associated with living in natural conditions.
- Provide adequate and stable support to people with intellectual disabilities who cannot live independently on a permanent basis without a lower level of support.

TARGET GROUP
