assisted living
a rather more knowledgeable source than me came up with the following neat division, which I at least wouldn't like to disagree with :
Ambulante behandeling = Ambulant treatment = counseling, drug
advice sessions etc
Ambulante begeleiding = Ambulant intervention = providing the
public with information
B-wonen = Assisted living = supervised care community
The usual term for B would be "begeleid", although begeleidend is not uncommon either. My guess is they are synonimous, but if anyone knows differently do please post!

: but 'assisted living' in US is a term used chiefly for the elderly. But you did get things going by giving the Dutch term

(sorry, missed the comment you'd made earlier reg. assisted living) ...but do you have a good alternative? (mind that b-wonen doesn't have a particularly juvenile connotation in Dutch either...)

Comment: "Thanks everyone! I found out that B staat voor Beschut, Beschermd of Begeleid wonen . I believe that ‘assisted living’ covers all the bases, see website: http://www.extendedcare.com/asp/glossary.asp#assisted
Thanks Vic.

Sheltered accommodation
Could also be called Warden controlled accommodation.
If this concerns old or infirm people it could be what is intended.

: sorry, but given the context now clear, doesn't seem to be the term. sheltered accommodation (assisted living in US) is a term usually used for the elderly.

supported living
From the provided link: "People who are vulnerable or disadvantaged may need support to enable them to access suitable housing and to live independently in their homes and communities.
This may be due to a physical or learning disability, a mental health difficulty, their age or because they have experienced significant problems such as homelessness or domestic violence."
Kennelijk ook in Nederland een begrip, zie de link van het (voormalige) NIZW.

Marlou Franken
: "sheltered" is more protected. Supported living towards more independence, considering the ambulant treatments.

Dank je wel, Marlou. Goede uitleg. 'Ambulatory' treatments kan ook.
