Impact story
Father about his son (age 21):
“For the first time in four years we experience that our son has made a decision to make a change. He has defined his goals for the future and shows a genuine will to achieve them. We have tried and tested several services like PPT, family counseling, psychologist specialists, both public and private services, with no results. It is therefore challenging to convey the change we see in our son, without being perceived as a solid bluff and an exaggeration. But this is true! It is difficult to express how much this means to us as parents and how grateful we are.”
