This Swiss social enterprise foundation has been supporting individuals with mental health and substance-related challenges since 1980, operating from locations in the Zurich Oberland and St. Gallen regions. The organization combines comprehensive rehabilitation services with vocational training and supported employment opportunities, creating an integrated pathway for individuals seeking to rebuild their lives. The foundation’s philosophy emphasizes dignity, hope, and individual worth—reflected in its motto “You are worth it”—and welcomes patients from diverse backgrounds without judgment. For international patients, the clinic offers inpatient addiction therapy programs, assisted living arrangements with varying levels of support, and structured day programs that address both therapeutic needs and practical life skills. The organization’s unique model integrates therapeutic rehabilitation with meaningful work through its own social enterprises, allowing patients to engage in real-world job training across woodworking, food production, logistics, and administration while receiving coordinated mental health and addiction treatment. This evidence-based approach to simultaneous rehabilitation and vocational integration distinguishes the facility within Switzerland’s rehabilitation landscape.
