Resumo: (Assistance in a residential group for children and youths with disabilities)

The hosting organization is a Protestant charitable foundation that runs over 80 social welfare institutions and residential projects. We offer housing and support for people with disabilities – to children, youth, elderly and families in need. We are active in the fields of education, work, support and recreation. The nonprofit company is part of the Foundation. The company offers housing and support for children, youth, adults and elderly people with disabilities. The inhabitants normally live there livelong and therefore pass through different stages of living and support with us.

The organization wants to make a contribution towards achieving more equality for people with disabilities in their everyday life while creating more awareness of cultural as well as human diversity, also partly through their work with (ESC) volunteers since 2011.

The residents should be accompanied and supported in their personal development, in their process of becoming indepentent and in their everyday life, especially in situations in which they cannot cope independently.

Here it would be nice if the volunteer would support the care staff. This includes leisure activities, household chores such as assistance with eating, shopping, and cooking, help with everyday activities such as getting up, getting dressed and undressed, evening activities, etc. Depending on their age and disability, residents also need support with light physical activities such as walks and mobilization. The volunteer will not support hygienic measures. The appropriate specialist staff is available for this.

In addition, practical life activities such as cooking, baking, and creative and musical activities are funded. It would be nice if the volunteer could accompany a vacation trip.
