About the Organization
JATC Community Health Care has been operating LSS (support and service) activities for 30 years. Our intention is to offer a safe and manageable environment with a meaningful daily life, based on each participant's unique abilities.
Our target group is young adults with neuropsychiatric variations with some activity limitations. We offer a creative comprehensive concept: housing, daily activities with market-oriented workplaces, and active leisure time.
Today we have operations in Strängnäs, Järna, Södertälje, Mölnbo, and Nynäshamn. Our clients are primarily municipalities and county councils. Most of our participants are covered by the Act on Support and Services for Persons with Certain Disabilities and the Social Services Act.
Our vision is to be a role model.
Our Mission is to inspire the generation of a meaningful life.
We see ourselves as enablers, which means creating conditions for a safe, joyful, and healthy lifestyle throughout life.
