Success of peer support for refugees
Since 2017, vivo international has established an innovative care model for coordinated psychotherapeutic care for refugees in the district of Constance with the involvement of supervised peers. You can read about the development of the project here.
In 2021, the group of supervised peers was expanded to a total of 20, who were also qualified as language mediators.
