The services to be provided will be tailored to the individual needs of each user. This will enable them to feel equal and meaningful, and this will in turn follow the basic principles of European society - social work.  The project will employ medical professionals, a rehabilitator and a specialist in social work and counseling, which will help the consumers in their everyday life, according to the individual needs of each one.
