The main principle of our activity is – DO NOT HARM! Our major goal is – unconditional recovering of everyone who came to us seeking help. That's why we continuously assess our work, correct mistakes and improve successful practice.
Do we have to say that employees called to form personality follow the way of self improvement themselves? 50% of our personnel are former addicts or co-dependents. Who else if not them knows the problem from inside and can serve example of recovering REALITY.
Our staff includes psychologists, philosophers, historians, artists, musicians, trainers and specialists of non-traditional treatment methods. But that does not mean that during sessions we talk on topics not related to reality. In contrast, during training sessions we work out living situations – the tricky ones requiring to make ethic choice. Residents of center acquire friends, their own personal social network, profession, job, education – all such things without which moral formation and recovering are not possible.
