“Solidarnost” Association for Rehabilitation of Addicted People
We started Solidarnost Program to meet the needs of people struggling with drug and alcohol addiction and problem gambling, as well as their families and relatives.
- The program aims at:
- Rehabilitation and social reintegration of drug addicts leading to autonomous living.
- Support and consultations for clients’ parents and relatives.
- Information and consulting, popularization of Solidarnost’ cause.
Structures of the Organization
The main activity of Solidarnost Association is rehabilitation and resocialization of alcohol, drug addicts and gambling, which is implemented by the Solidarnost Program. The program was established in 2003 and employs psychologists with extensive experience in recovering from addictions.
The Solidarnost Program offers a clean, sheltered environment that does not allow the use of drugs and alcohol as well as the violence.
To register for a primary consultation, you can contact us at the following phone numbers between 9:00 and 17:00 every working day:
The evening program aims at helping working and studying individuals, who are addicted to gambling, as well as their families. It is important to us that we provide a service that is both easily accessible and sufficiently effective to meet the needs of people struggling with gambling addiction. Therefore we offer a predominantly group based approach, which is backed by a personal treatment plan (PTP) and individual counseling. The clients’ relatives can take advantage of the support of our family counselor.
Since 2009, the Information and Consultation Center “Ambassadors of Hope” has been operating the National Drugs, Alcohol and Gambling Helpline (NDAGH).
