Additional Offerings

Children's and family center

As a children's and family center we are a point of contact for families. The concept of the family is deliberately very broad, as it has also changed in social reality. The age does not matter, the needs of children in the first year of life are of interest to us as well as those of the parents or those of seniors. 

We offer under one roof support, education, encounter, promotion and support.

Education partnership

In addition to the child's support, the competent and individual accompaniment of the family is an important part of the work through counseling, support and development discussions.
