ABOUT US

Welcome to Brattås short-term housing!

"I am so grateful for my time here and for there being people like you. You really help people." - Resident at Brattås

Brattås is a drug-free short-term housing facility with 15 places for men and women aged 25-55 who need support due to mental health issues and co-occurring disorders, with or without addiction problems. We are located in central Kållered, Mölndal Municipality, with good opportunities for convenient commuting by public transport.

Brattås welcomes residents when more qualified support is needed to make life and daily routines function. Our mission is to offer a safe and stable existence and promote the conditions for a more independent life. Through professional, evidence-based, and individualized psychosocial support, we work together with the individual to maintain drug freedom and active participation in society. Through close collaboration with healthcare and social services, we create conditions for further planning towards a stable existence and, as far as possible, independent housing.

At Brattås, we believe that good professional treatment is crucial for the intervention to have positive effects. Being met with respect, empathy, interest, and clarity creates safety, trust, and participation. Good meetings create good reasons for positive life choices. We strive for residents to feel seen and valued, and to feel comfortable and safe both with the staff and in the housing.
