The non residential programme KETHEA DIAVASI was set up in Athens in 1990 for adult drug users and their families. KETHEA DIAVASI is designed to assist recovery from addiction without cutting drug users off from their family, work, education and social environment.
The Morning Programme of KETHEA DIAVASI is addressed to young adults over 21 years old who have a supportive family or social network. Τhe Evening Programme is aimed at working people and students and the Secondary Prevention Programme is addressed to occasional drug users in employment and their families.
ΚΕΤΗΕΑ DIAVASI prioritizes vocational guidance and counselling, education and vocational training, in collaboration with institutions and organisations that offer scholarships to it's members. In addition, a Job Club provides KETHEA DIAVASI members with occupational support, helping them develop a working identity, find a steady occupation and develop their presence in the job market. The Job Club also encourages employers and organizations to give equal opportunities to former drug users.
To increase the creative participation of society as a whole in fighting and preventing drug abuse, KETHEA DIAVASI regularly organises open events around Athens. In addition, its Arts Club (1997) stages a variety of cultural events, such as artistic exhibitions, book launches, concerts, performances etc.
