Our team is diverse in both age and background. With employees ranging from 24 to 60 years old and a wide variety of cultural backgrounds, we strengthen each other and bring together different perspectives. This makes our team versatile and dynamic, something we’re proud of.

We also collaborate with various (re)integrators and volunteers in our Recovery Studio. These team members contribute to the creative process while working on their personal development. We are always open to welcoming new team members and certainly need more people to help us achieve our goals.
