Steunpunt GGZ Utrecht

What Steunpunt GGZ Utrecht does

Steunpunt GGZ Utrecht, operating under its legal name Steunpunt Zelfregie & Herstel, is a Dutch non-profit organization (KVK 30165818, RSIN 816344486) that provides free, walk-in mental health and recovery support across the Utrecht province. The organization targets individuals experiencing stress, burnout, debt, loneliness, or general mental well-being challenges, serving them without waiting lists, membership fees, or referral requirements. Service delivery is community-based and peer-led, with staff and volunteers drawing on lived experience of mental health difficulties to provide authentic support.

Its service portfolio centers on an Activities Program (Activiteiten) anchored by drop-in "Koffie & Kletsen" (Coffee & Chat) sessions and structured peer groups branded as sub-programs: Gouden Mannen (Golden Men), Vrouwen & Verbinding (Women & Connection), and Herstelverhaal (Recovery Story). Distribution is exclusively physical, through a network of seven walk-in locations spread across the municipalities of Utrecht (Centrum and Kanaleneiland), Zeist (two sites), De Bilt, De Ronde Venen, and Stichtse Vecht, each with posted opening hours and a dedicated contact number. Supporting touchpoints are limited to a content website (zelfregie-herstel.nl) with an agenda, blogs, and a news section; no mobile app, API, or disclosed technology platform exists.

The business model is donation-funded. The organization holds ANBI (Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling) public benefit status, CRKBO certification, and recognition as an "erkend leerbedrijf" (approved training company), and it operates without profit motive. There is no disclosed headcount, no parent company, no venture or institutional funding, and no revenue figure. The single disclosed leader is Director Daphne van Dijk, and operational scaling appears to rely on volunteers, including an open volunteer role for communications and marketing.

Direct peers

• Stichting MIND: Dutch mental health platform and advocacy organization running peer-support communities (including MIND Korrelatie) for people with psychological vulnerabilities. Closely aligned with Steunpunt's peer-led, low-threshold approach.
• Lister: Dutch organization providing supported housing and recovery-oriented care for people with mental health vulnerabilities, using peer support and community integration across multiple regions.
• Herstel & Empowerment (H&E): Dutch national network promoting recovery-oriented, peer-led mental health support. Directly comparable to Steunpunt's mission of self-management and lived-experience-based community support.

Broad incumbents

• GGZ Centraal: Major Dutch regional GGZ provider offering clinical mental health services in Flevoland and surrounding areas; relevant as an adjacent formal-care counterpart to Steunpunt's community-based model.
• GGZ inGeest: Dutch GGZ provider (part of Amsterdam UMC) offering outpatient mental health care including recovery and prevention programs in the Amsterdam region; comparable clinical mental health footprint to Utrecht-based Steunpunt.
• Dimence Groep: Large Dutch mental health and social care provider offering outpatient, residential, and community-based services; overlaps with Steunpunt's recovery-support positioning at a much larger scale.

Others

• Trimbos-instituut: Dutch national knowledge center for mental health and substance use; not a service provider but adjacent ecosystem actor that funds and disseminates peer-support and recovery research relevant to Steunpunt.
