Every day, we work in a space that is often invisible, yet crucial: the space of transition. It is the period between leaving a therapeutic community and returning to everyday life, the passage from a protected environment to the outside world, from care to autonomy. It is precisely in this “void” that people too often risk being left alone. NoGap was created to inhabit this transition, building bridges, relationships and opportunities.

The association supports young women and men with dual diagnoses throughout their social and professional reintegration, while also maintaining a constant commitment to combating intersectional violence.

The term “dual diagnosis” refers to the complex interaction between substance use and psychological distress. This intersection, in addition to exacerbating symptoms, very often translates, at a political level, into greater social, economic, healthcare and gender inequalities. Every day, our association works to remove the barriers that, to quote Article 3 of the Italian Constitution, “prevent the full development of the human person and the effective participation of all workers in the political, economic and social organisation of the country.”
