- Employment and rehabilitation services
Valo-Valmennusyhdistys provides employment services as well as various rehabilitative services to employment authorities, local authorities/municipalities, education providers/colleges and other public organisations. The aim of these services is to improve participants’ skills, provide a sense of accomplishment, strengthen self-esteem and independence, improve inclusion and support participants in transitioning towards education and/or employment. - Educational services
Valo-Valmennusyhdistys provides education services to various organisations. Our learning environments are informal, work/employer-based environments, enabling learning through real life tasks. We develop the Valo-Valmennus –concept, that enables the completion of vocational qualification modules (and full qualifications) in informal learning environments. We also develop basic skills training (reading, writing, maths, IT) in our learning environments. - Housing
We offer supported housing to those who need support in transitioning to independent living. Our housing services are offered either in individual units or small clusters, where standard rental agreements can be arranged (the housing first model). Holistic support is offered to those accessing our housing services. - Youth Services
Valo-Valmennusyhdistys primarly works with young people at risk of exclusion from society. We operate Youth Guarantee Houses (services) in Helsinki, Turku, Tampere and Rauma. The houses offer young people services such as: youth work, individual and group support, hobbies and support with education and employment. In addition, we provide so called Nuotti –coaching to young people whose physical, mental and/or social functioning has declined. This work is based on young persons´ own resources, skills and hopes for the future. We also offer statutory services in child protection and after care.
