Erziehungsstellen
Foster homes offer children and young people who cannot live with their biological families a family home. Living together with educational professionals, they receive individual support, protection, and security. Our concept combines professional care with a secure bond. The aim is to give young people stability and positively influence their development. Close support from our specialist counselors ensures the quality of the educational work.

This is important to us
Our educational facilities are a fully residential youth welfare service in accordance with Sections 27, 34, and 35a of SGB VIII (German Social Code). They are aimed at children and young people who, due to their life situation, cannot remain in their family of origin and need a family environment with permanent caregivers.
The concept is based on combining private life with professional educational activities. The children are welcomed into the community of educational professionals, who work on a freelance basis. Each educational facility can care for between one and, in exceptional cases, a maximum of three children.
The aim of the concept is to offer these young people a safe place to live where they can develop their potential.
Key elements of our approach:
- Relationship building: Establishing a secure bond as the basis for positive development
- Organizing daily life: Integration into everyday family life, taking individual needs into account
- Support: Assistance in academic, professional, and social areas
- Parental involvement: Involvement of the family of origin
- Professional support: Regular counseling and external supervision
- Cooperation: Foster care providers, specialist advisors, and youth welfare services work closely together to provide needs-based, high-quality care
- Optimal support: Additional modules for additional or intensive needs
