Partnerships

Our collaboration with the current CEO of Lives Through Friends, Bob Rhodes, began back in 2000, during the Association’s first steps. His guidance has been decisively positive. Thanks to his extensive experience, he and the pioneers of the Association laid the groundwork for our subsequent course. We remain in close cooperation and organize regular external evaluations of our services and training for our staff in the most modern support practices and methodologies.

We maintain a stable collaboration with this pioneering organization from Canada, which has opened new avenues in supporting people with disabilities and their families internationally, emphasizing the value of natural social relationships of love and care. Inspired by their work, we developed social networks for our residents with funding from the Bodossaki Foundation.
