The transformation of Health House into Community House has brought about significant changes in the services provided and in the working methods of the professionals involved, affecting the organisational dynamics and the methodological approaches adopted. This paper analyses the evolution of psychology services in Emilia-Romagna, examining the activities, interventions and experiments in the regional territory, as implemented in Community Houses. The use of the principles of community psychology allows for a critical reflection on the current framework, favoring the identification of future development trajectories oriented towards the promotion of participatory processes, the reduction of inequalities, the creation and consolidation of territorial partnerships and the strengthening of professionals’ training.

Keywords: community house, health, services, psychology, community networks, proximity.
