H204 – Supporting a life-sharing community in Greece

Context

The only intentional life-sharing community in Greece for adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (ID/DD) and their caregivers is located in Keramou, Galaxidi. It is a consciously outward-looking community, striving to integrate each of its members into local society while also enriching the local community through its interaction with them.  

Within its model of inclusion and emotional connection, it strives to give its members with ID/DD choice and control over their lives and to create the conditions to fulfil their needs and aspirations over their entire adult lifetime, both within the community and in society around it. Similarly, it aims to fulfil the needs and aspirations of its caregivers for their long term or even lifelong engagement.
