Proyecto Amigó - Fundación Amigó

Addiction treatment and support in Castellón

Proyecto Amigó is a resource serving Castellón province, Spain, with addiction treatment, prevention, and social and employment reintegration. Part of Proyecto Hombre Castellón, it has operated since 1992. It serves young people and adults, along with their families, through integrated, individualized programs. It also works with people at risk of or experiencing social exclusion related to addiction.

Programs and services

The organization offers outpatient and residential programs, selected after an assessment that considers factors such as the substance, pattern of use, family support, and employment situation.

• Day centers: outpatient treatment support and social and employment reintegration programs in Castellón de la Plana and Vinaròs.
• Proyecto ALTER: outpatient support for behavioral addictions, including gambling and compulsive behaviors, designed to fit around daily life.
• Proyecto Joven: prevention and outpatient support for risky behaviors, including substance use and excessive phone or social-media use. It serves young people ages 13–22 in Castellón province and their families.
• Proyecto INSOLA: specialized social and employment reintegration, developed with Proyecto Hombre and funded by the European Social Fund. The call launched January 1, 2020, and was expected to serve more than 100 people through June 30, 2023.
• Therapeutic community: a mixed residential program with capacity for 30 patients, focused on starting and maintaining abstinence and building skills for social reintegration.
• Supported treatment housing: a residential resource for men only, with capacity for 10 patients, for cases of deeply established addiction.

Approach and team

Treatment follows Proyecto Hombre’s approach, combining therapeutic and educational work with a humanistic, person-centered philosophy. The organization views addiction as a symptom of an underlying personal problem and involves families in the process. Its multidisciplinary team includes psychologists, educators, health-care professionals, and social workers with specialized training in substance-use disorders, alongside volunteers and a Family Association that helps with project events.
