A few words about the Social Cooperative
The Social Cooperative is a mental health service which aims at the vocational training and social rehabilitation of people with psycho-social problems.
Founded in 2002, it is the culmination of reforms in psychiatry, initiated in Leros in 1990 and later extended to all the mental institutions throughout Greece.
