  • Poland
Thematic scope of the project:
  • Access to employment and social inclusion
Problems to be solved (justification of the need of the transnational cooperation):

Social inclusion of different groups of people.

In the new  Project  we would like to develop further  concept of “sociopsychiatry”  ( the concept is   still not well definited also in others EU countries). The Project assumes cooperation of  various national and international partners.
The Project’s long term   plan foresees development of  EUROPEAN  NETWORK  of   YOUTH SOCIOPSYCHIATRY for young people  that run a risk for social exclusion because of their psychological/ psychiatric problems.
The conclusions and recommendations  from   the Evaluation of  our EQUAL Project  were   following  ;
1.    Social support in local communities for youth  with psychiatric illnesses is  very needed.
2.    The  model PROGRES is  an effective support of youth.
3.    The prospective/longitudinal  evaluation of the PROGRES model would be valuable.
4.    Systemic solution in sociopsychiatry for youth are strongly recommended and needs  further development.

Objectives to be achieved: Social inclusion of different groups of people.
Main transnational activities (as provisionally planned, to be confirmed with partners): See above
Planned deliverables & outcomes of TNC: Every country  that wish to  share with us own experiences concerning youth sociopsychiatry or  would like to  learn/ to profit from our  EQUAL- practice  are very welcome to contact us.
