Bridging the market gap in disability care: a benchmark-based business model - what is the current structure proposal for CAPDM?

Abstract

Comunidade Vida e Paz has identified a critical and urgent gap in care for individuals experiencing social exclusion, often triggered by disabilities, homelessness or substance abuse issues. CAPDM’s project (Centro de Apoio a Pessoas com Deficiência Moderada) arises as the solution to restore hope and dignity for individuals living with such significant and deeply entrenched challenges. Hence, this comprehensive and benchmark-based study proposes a financially sustainable business model for a center that integrates residential care, clinical services, and daily activities. From vision to reality, pathways to brighter horizons are built with this project to ensure impactful and lasting change.
