About Herstelacademie Korak
Korak is a recovery academy and is for everyone. We have a wide range of training, courses and workshops. Korak is 100% run by Peers. We thereby indicate that both our participants and our volunteers and paid staff have personal experiences in the field of life-disrupting events and/or psychological vulnerability. This creates a pleasant environment in which experience with disruption is less 'crazy' and more 'normal', and where respect and hospitality towards others are paramount. By working together with people with similar experiences, we create an atmosphere in which we can take steps. Precisely by addressing each other on the healthy and talented part. Not by care providers, but by the people who know what you are experiencing.
