The CERVIN (\\\'Centro de Recuperação Vida Nova\\\' – rehabilitation center new life) is a social non-profit and non-governmental organization. Our mission: “Motivated by our Christian responsibility we are trying to prevent addiction to alcohol or drugs and reintegrate drug dependent persons into society – for a better quality of life.”
In February 1985 the CERVIN was founded. Since then more than 2600 (until 2010) people have passed its program or part of it. Most come from neighbouring cities or from other states of Brazil.
Our intention is to facilitate the re-entry for addicted people into a new life: a physically and spiritually healthier life. This costs a lot of discipline, even though every patient is therapeutically assisted – individually as well as in group sessions. Everything depends on the patient: provided his free will to start this treatment, he is very welcome!
