Work
For us, regular work is an important pillar for everyone in our community. We give opportunities for work to our special needs residents in a protective, pleasant and stress-free environment, while at the same time ensuring that each of them develops his or her skills in a continuous way. Teamwork is an integral part of our way of working: The workshops we offer right now are:
