FOUNDATION
Non-governmental Organization "Independent Life" was founded in Tartu
in 1997. The organization grew out of the Tartu Care Center of Mental
Health. The idea of the foundation of the NGO "Independent Life" arose
from the need to find the solution to the unemployment problem of
people with special psychical needs. In 2001 with the help of the
Canadian Center of Mental Health in addition to the supported work also
the service of supported living was created. This service enables
people with special psychical needs to live in the flats of the
collective home type. Since 2002 organization provides also day center
service. To get better overview of Iseseisev Elu see organization's
