Centro Quinta da Tomada – Comunidade Vida e Paz – Mafra
About Centro Quinta da Tomada – Comunidade Vida e Paz
Centro Quinta da Tomada – Comunidade Vida e Paz is a residential centre at Lapa, Venda do Pinheiro, in the municipality of Mafra, run by Comunidade Vida e Paz, a Catholic-inspired IPSS working with individuals experiencing homelessness since 1989. The centre combines a therapeutic community, started in 1993, with an insertion community, and has places contracted with the State through ICAD.
The centre is intended for individuals who are homeless and living with alcohol or drug addiction and associated comorbidities, including psychological suffering and mental disorders. Clinical and psychological follow-up based on recognised therapeutic models runs alongside therapeutic counselling, social support, personal and social skills development, structured rehabilitation activities, life-goal planning and help into employment, and because treatment and reintegration happen in the same place, a person can move from the therapeutic community into the insertion phase without changing site. The organisation’s history records a detox unit created at Tomada in 2005. Referrals and requests for support go through the organisation’s Espaço Aberto ao Diálogo in Chelas, Lisbon, on 218 599 058, 218 599 059 or 912 474 000, and the centre itself answers on +351 219 861 851.

Centro Quinta da Tomada – Comunidade Vida e Paz Detox and Rehab Services
Centro Quinta da Tomada – Comunidade Vida e Paz offers three levels of care: a residential therapeutic community for alcohol and drug dependence, an insertion community for the reintegration phase that follows treatment, and a detox unit recorded in the organisation’s history since 2005. Treatment is clinical and psychological follow-up based on recognised therapeutic models, with support for associated mental disorders.
Day to day, residents take part in therapeutic counselling, personal and social skills development, structured rehabilitation activities and insertion activities that build autonomy, alongside training workshops that prepare for work and life outside. Social workers help with life-goal setting, employment integration and referral to complementary services, and the organisation’s wider network adds street outreach teams, a drop-in space in Chelas and reintegration apartments in Venda do Pinheiro, Odivelas, Leiria and Torres Vedras for the step after the community. Programme length, specific medications used in detox and the current operation of the detox unit are not described on the organisation’s pages, so ask when making contact.

How Much Does Treatment at Centro Quinta da Tomada – Comunidade Vida e Paz Cost?
Centro Quinta da Tomada – Comunidade Vida e Paz has places contracted with the State under an ICAD convention, so a publicly referred place carries a client contribution rather than the full fee. Private places are self-pay; therapeutic community treatment typically costs €6,000 to €16,500 a month and detox €3,500 to €11,000 a month. Contact the centre for a quote.
Comunidade Vida e Paz is an IPSS funded by donations and public support, and its work is aimed at individuals experiencing homelessness, so most residents arrive through the public route with no fee stated on the organisation’s pages. Of 65 licensed places, 52 are contracted, including places for dual diagnosis, alcohol dependence and one long-duration place. The insertion community is a reintegration service and is not priced here. Ask the team what, if anything, a resident contributes and how a privately funded place would be charged.

Centro Quinta da Tomada – Comunidade Vida e Paz Reviews
Reviews of Centro Quinta da Tomada – Comunidade Vida e Paz from around the web are limited and tend to speak about Comunidade Vida e Paz as a whole, a well-known Lisbon charity, rather than this particular centre. RehabSeekers hosts reviews for the centre, and anyone who has lived in the therapeutic or insertion community is welcome to share their experience.
Accounts of the move from street outreach into treatment at Tomada, of daily life on the quinta and of the step into an insertion apartment would help individuals and the services supporting them understand what the pathway involves. Volunteers and family members who have visited can also add useful perspective.
