Art as a Tool for Recovery
An article about the activities of the Futuro Community Center
An article dedicated to the activities of the Futuro Community Center was published in the professional journal *Social Work*. The text focuses on how we use art as a tool for recovery, how we support people with experience of mental illness, and how we work together to create a safe space for sharing, creativity, and mutual support. The article provides specific examples from community practice and shows how creative activities can strengthen hope, self-confidence, and a sense of belonging.
If you're interested in what our day-to-day work looks like, what programs we offer, and what experiences the participants themselves have, we recommend reading the article. You'll find inspiration for your own practice as well as a better understanding of how a community center can support the recovery process.
