This is us

Our philosophy:
Inclusion and participation

Our work is based on the conviction that everyone has the right to social participation and recognition. With our workshops and programmes, we promote skills, boost self-confidence and enable people to lead a self-determined life. We combine professional support with an environment that emphasises community and appreciation.

Our core areas

Every person is unique – and our educational support is just as individualised. Our social education workers and therapists work closely with employees to promote their strengths and develop new skills. Whether professional qualification, social integration or personal development – we accompany each step with support and respect.
