The basic legal framework for the operation of Rehabilitation Centers in Greece is implemented following the directives of the European Economic Community. The objective is the design and development of modern social care and welfare services, through organized, independent Recovery and Rehabilitation Units. However, society’s general attitude towards disability at the time was hostile, and there was a lack of planning, objectives, services, structures and infrastructure. In this context ANAPLASI, the first organized, adminsterially and scientifically, Rehabilitation Center in our country, is founded in 1994.
