This is important to us

The Patersberg residential group is located in a house in a rural setting in a small village near St. Goarshausen. Six children and young people aged six and above can be accommodated here. Each child has their own individually furnished single room. 

Animal-assisted education helps to (re)establish emotional balance. In order to enable the children to interact with adults through the animals, we also integrate therapeutic horseback riding (HBP) on the "horse island" into everyday life. 

Our goal is to provide children and young people with long-term accommodation in a family environment, supporting them on their path to independence. We strengthen parental skills and resources. Our services also include crisis intervention. Our actions are always characterized by appreciation, recognition, and helping people to help themselves.
