In April 2025, a multidisciplinary group of eight health professionals from three different institutions from Zagreb, Croatia, have visited in The Netherlands the Lore Treatment and Expertise Centre and ORO in Helmond/Deurne, Cordaan Youth in Amsterdam and Academic Workplace Affect-Us at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. The aim of the study visit: to see how Ante Došen’s approach is applied in The Netherlands.
In 2026 we have continued our support to the Croatian mental health professionals who work with clients with intellectual disabilities. We have organised a training to a multidisciplinary group of professionals on translation of the assessment results of the Scales for Emotional Development into practice. In addition, supervision sessions were held. In all, some 30 assessors from Zagreb have participated in our activities to support the creation of a multidisciplinary network of mental health professionals in intellectual disability. This was made possible by a generous donation of the PAOS fonds.
