YEREVAN, OCTOBER 12, NOYAN TAPAN. There is no institution envisaged for mental backward parentless young people aged 18 and more in Armenia as a result of which they have to live in state psychiatrical institutions. However, there are not sufficient conditions in those institutions and they are not suitable for young people having such problems, as the latters are not mental patients. This statement was made by Ani Gasparian, who is in charge for Public Relations of the "Arakelutiun Hayastan" (Mission Armenia) charitable non-governmental organization, at the event organized on October 10 on the occasion of the World Mental Health Day. She also declared that the "Warm Corner" group house was founded in Yerevan by the joint efforts of Natali Reiser, a volunteer of the "US Peace Corp", and the above-mentioned organization two years ago. It is the first non-state institution in Armenia, which provides family atmosphere, offers a long and complete rehabilitation care. At present, 6 young people belonging to the above-mentioned group are living in the "Warm Corner".
