CSSPKM

Centrum sociálnych služieb prof. Karola Matulaya (CSSPKM) is a Bratislava-based social services centre supporting children and adults with disabilities. For around 40 years, the organisation has developed approaches that move beyond basic care, focusing on each person’s abilities, needs and opportunities for participation. Its services include a social services home, a specialised facility, supported living and assistance for people seeking to live independently. The centre also runs a regional diagnostic and counselling service for people with autism and other developmental disorders, offering diagnostic and therapeutic support as well as training for staff.

CSSPKM’s work includes individual planning, therapies, interest groups, and social and sporting activities, with the aim of helping service users pursue meaningful lives and greater self-realisation. The organisation works alongside families and provides activities and opportunities tailored to individual needs. Its website also shares information for prospective service users, employees and supporters, alongside updates, creative projects, a theatre group and a sensory garden. Based in Bratislava, CSSPKM combines direct support with specialist services and community-focused initiatives.
