SIRIUS

Skills for inclusion in society

About the project

The project stems from the need expressed by all partners to jointly address the challenges of ensuring a smooth transition from the rehabilitation processes of adults with dual diagnosis to their reintegration into society and in particular the labour market.

It is clear that the social sector, and specifically social enterprises and public officials, lack knowledge about effective methodologies and strategies to guide adults in their process of reintegration into society. This difficulty becomes even more relevant in the context of adults with dual diagnosis, as the lack of knowledge about the origin of their situation and the correlation between the two diagnoses makes it even more difficult to establish actions to support their integration into society.

Objectives

The general objective of SIRIUS were to improve the inclusion of dual diagnosed adult in the society and labour market.

The specific objectives were:

to improve the individual skills of the target group of dual diagnosed adults;
to strengthen the organisational capacity and the competences of the individual professional working with the reintegration of dual diagnosed adults.

a first seminar with experts in Italy to identify good practices;
a second seminar with experts in Sweden to identify good practices;
