The European Expert Group on the transition from institutions to community-based support is a coalition of organisations advocating to replace institutionalisation with family- and community-based support.
The EEG consists of organisations, representing:
- Children and their families;

- People experiencing homelessness;
- People experiencing mental health problems;
- Service providers;

The EEG works at the EU-level to advocate for the transition from institutions to community-based support (deinstitutionalisation).
We focus on the use of EU funds and their role in facilitating the transitions.
The EEG:
- Writes reports about deinstitutionalisation.
- Develops toolkits to use of EU funds for the transition from institutional to community-based support.
- Gives opinions and recommendations.
- Organises events.
