Sans Souci Program for Transition and Recovery

Sans Souci Program for Transition and Recovery


The Sans Souci Program specializes in the care of individuals with a severe and persistent mental illness. Diagnostically, it includes schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorders, affective disorders including bipolar disorder and unipolar depression, and various disorders with an organic origin. The goal of transition and recovery is to ensure that the person with a serious psychiatric disability possesses those physical, emotional and intellectual skills needed for him/her to live, learn, work and socialize in his/her own particular environment. The program provides in-hospital and community based treatment and rehabilitation.
