Di.A.Psi. Piemonte ODV (Difesa Ammalati Psichici) is a voluntary, non-profit organization composed of individuals living with mental health conditions and their families.

Founded in Turin in 1988 as Di.A.Psi.Gra by a group of families, the association later adopted its current name, Di.A.Psi. (Difesa Ammalati Psichici), while continuing to uphold the original values and principles established by its founders.

Our mission is driven by the commitment to:

– Advocate for systemic and cultural change within the community, through continuous efforts to safeguard the rights and dignity of individuals with mental health conditions and their caregivers.
– Provide information and guidance regarding access to mental health services, resources, and available treatments.
– Offer psychological counseling and support to families.
– Promote social inclusion and well-being by organizing a wide range of activities for patients and caregivers, including self-help groups, outdoor excursions, social gatherings, workshops aimed at improving family communication, and sports programs supported by specialized tutors. These initiatives foster mutual support, personal growth, and community integration.

Group activities are offered from Monday to Friday, and—thanks to the “Weekend da sBandolo” program supported by Compagnia di San Paolo—initiatives also take place every weekend and during holidays throughout the year.

Di.A.Psi. is currently a member of FISAM (Unione Nazionale Associazioni Italiana per la Salute Mentale ONLUS), CPD (Consulta Persone in Difficoltà), Il Bandolo ONLUS, Vol.To (Centro servizi per il Volontariato)

All our services are provided free of charge.
