The villas and ITP (Individual training program)

Written by Susanne.

Our "Villas" are home for a group of adults living in a number of houses. The adults live here because they have special needs. Here they get themselves a safe home with support, love and demands. Many of them live here for many years and get more and more control of their dysfunctions which can have background in abuse, health or psychological problems.
The program includes life-style-training, school and practical activities – all of it with an important element of integration with students from The Necessary Teacher Training College (DNS) and PTG-students.

The students in the Villas experience bigger and smaller victories in Tvind:
They keep the park, drive the tractor and the lawn mowers.
They learn subjects like geography and biology in the "Villa High school".
They travel to far away counties – taking a bath in a bucket in Malawi, climbing a volcano in St Vincent or living in a folk high school in the USA.
They learn to speak English, learn house keeping and thoughtfulness.
They experience respect, get new friends and a broader out look.
