The mission of the organization is to provide physical and mental well-being of the population of Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti, in particular people with healthcare and psycho-social needs, as well as youth/adolescents. We believe that mental and physical health is necessary prerequisite for aperson's full life. Accordingly, we want an environment where human rights are protected and a wide variety of health and social services are available to the public, especially vulnerable groups. To do this, the organization offers targeted, preventive, curative, rehabilitation and social services to target groups; protects their interests and carries out capacity building activities; It also works to raise public awareness of physical and mental health. Since 2004 till today, Association XENON implemented more than 40 projects concerning harm reduction caused by drug usage, advocacy for the rights of drug users and access to healthcare service. In November 2018, Association XENON joined the State Program of C Hepatitis Elimination and offered free diagnostics/treatment to Hepatitis C patients. The activity of the organization is based on the principles of people’s receptivity, reciprocity, support, equality and cooperation.
