Odyssea in cooperation with KETHEA EN DRASI implements an unprecedented in the Greek context, holistic approach for the social reintegration of imprisoned and released former users of psychoactive substances.
Two distinct phases:
Includes: therapeutic treatment, vocational training, professional orientation, and post-therapeutic support for smooth reintegration.

They have helped me a lot to open my mind and my thinking to learn new things that, both while I was in use, and in my life in general as it were, I didn't have that option...Here I am given that option, it helps me a lot. It's also very good that I am given options for a career because after prison it's quite difficult for me to be able to stable job somewhere. And in general, we have a lot of fun with the team. It's my happy time.
The collaboration with Odyssea and KETHEA EN DRASI provided the beneficiaries within and outside of the detention centers, the ability to reflect that aesthetics are directly connected with consistency and the need for a vision in life. Odyssea team embraced our KETHEA EN DRASI members and that gave them the hope for a better life. The collaboration of the two organisations puts this vision into practice. The continuation of this collaboration is the common demonitor for the realisation of the therapeutic and the educational targets of the KETHEA EN DRASI member.
