In 2000, the members of Lilium planned and implemented the rehabilitative/therapeutic communities for multiple disorders, "Il Mandorlo" and "Itaca", which are prepared to welcome drug dependent patients with psychiatric pathologies, related to a chronic history. "Il Mandorlo" in particular, was born out change, dictated by the need to adapt to the need to reflect, posed by the community team - of the community founded in 1993.
The rehabilitative/therapeutic program has the objective of improving the quality of life of the patients, helping them with the management of their own pathology, helping them to assume greater responsibility and greater autonomy.

In 2003, the members of Lilium planned and implemented the socio-educational and rehabilitative/therapeutic community "Il Mandorlo Giovani", which is able to receive youth (up to the age of 21), male, who present a picture of psychic pathology of varying seriousness (psychotic disturbances, personality disorders, behavioural disorders) and behaviour at risk of becoming delinquent and or / drug dependent, including both those who are facing criminal charges, as well as those who are in care because they are at risk of delinquency.

In general, all the Lilium communities offer their clients, both a home, where the guest is welcome and protected, as well as a place of development, which allows them to have new opportunities of growth from the cognitive and emotional perspectives, as well as the opportunity to reach new autonomy (in the case of a rehabilitative/therapeutic program). Furthermore, clients are allowed to increase their inter-relational skills, through gradual involvement in a series of common activities and exchanges with the group of workers, as well as develop a greater personal responsibility through the gradual assumption of responsibilities and tasks (apart from those guests who are most seriously compromised).
