Based on the Joint Ministerial Decision G4a/F.201/1791/1998 "Conditions for the establishment and operation of Supported Living Shelters for Persons with Special Needs" (Official Government Gazette 517/B’/1998):
- In 2021, the KOIN.S.EP. MYRTILLO established a "Supported Living Shelter" (S.L.S.).
- A Supported Living Shelter (S.L.S.) refers to the spaces dedicated to the permanent residence of individuals with disabilities, with organized support provided by the organization, ensuring conditions suitable for sleeping, physical hygiene, cleanliness, and dignified daily living.
- The S.L.S. of KOIN.S.EP. MYRTILLO is part of and funded by the Regional Program ATTICA ESPA 2021-2027.
Myrtillo, once again fulfilling its purpose for the social inclusion of people with disabilities, takes another step in this direction. Since June 1, 2021, it has started the pilot operation of a Supported Living Shelter (ΣΥΔ), Myrtillo Home!
The Myrtillo Supported Living Shelter provides four individuals with disabilities the opportunity to transition to as-independent-as-possible living within an inclusive and safe environment. This transition is one of the most significant milestones in a person's life, as it gives them the opportunity to shape their own lifestyle.
Myrtillo Home paves the way for more flexible forms of support for people with disabilities, offering them a range of personal choices and a true sense of autonomy in managing daily life practicalities and setting beneficial life goals.
As with Myrtillo Café, the goal at Myrtillo Home is to enhance the quality of life of residents in emotional, material, spiritual, and social aspects with the right planning.
