Resumo: The hosting organization is a department of the local government that works with the interests and issues of young people between 12 and 19 years. The association is noncommercial and politically unaffiliated. Aim of the association is the advancement of youth work as an additional contribution to youth education provided by schools and other youth-orientated associations.
We provide opportunities and activities for young people to discover their own personal aims and limits especially regarding creativity and developing their own personality. Our work should support young people
in the phase of adolescence and with the complex tasks of growing up.

To fulfil these tasks our association provides a youth centre where young people have the opportunity to socialise, do creative work or participate in all kind of workshops. We also set our focus on young people with
migrant origin, young people with disabilities or educational shortcomings and young people facing poverty. We also provide gender specific youth work and offer a special programme for girls and boys.
Altogether we work with an interprofessional team of five people of different backgrounds (youth workers, social workers etc.), trainees and also a team of young people who organise and help to organise parties
and work in different projects.
We work in close cooperation with other organisations in the youth and social field on a local and regional level

Perfil: We are ready and open to receive a volunteer and look forward to getting
to know someone new. We think it important that the person is ready to have new experiences.
The volunteer should be motivated to work in our team and should like to get to know many young people. To work with young people should be fun and enriching. We are looking for a creative,flexible and motivated person.
