Abstract

Inclusive citizenship is an important concept in today’s mental health care. Still, persons with co-occurring substance use problems and psychiatric problems seem to fall through the cracks of existing (community) treatment services. At the same time, they are the persons least asked for their opinions as service users. This commentary sheds light on Villa Voortman, an innovative community-based outpatient treatment service for persons with dual diagnosis in Ghent (Belgium) that gives a central position to user perspectives in its daily practice.
