Resumo: Tõrva Kodu provides 24-hours supported living for adults with mental and physical disabilities. There are 60 adult men and women aged 23-80 years living in that home. The home works every day for one goal – that people who live there would have active and positive days no matter their age, gender or disability. For that, there are activities like felting, ceramics, sewing. They are also very active in sports like walking, games, dancing, and activities like art and handicraft. They are always standing for disabled people’s right to be involved in society and feel safe at home and support every person to be as independent as they can.
Tõrva Kodu is open in both ways – they encourage clients to be an active member of the local community and welcome families, trainees and volunteers to the home. An important part of everyday life is finding work for the clients in the local community – supporting them to find work that they are able to do. They would like their clients to have possibilities to get in touch with the outside world and the local community.
The clients in Tõrva Kodu are accommodated in modern 1-story family-type houses surrounded by a big green garden. The clients are mostly friendly and positive. Some have different ways to communicate- staff will help and guide volunteers in this.
Benefits of volunteering:
- The profound experience of social work and assistance to mentally disabled people
- May be helpful for determining future studies or field of work
- A chance to experience life in the countryside hence learning about and helping to raise European awareness in the local community
