Integration assistance for the mentally ill


The aim of integration assistance is to avoid an imminent mental disability or to eliminate or mitigate the consequences of a disability. Their participation in community life should be maintained or restored after a long hospital stay or prolonged isolation.
You will find support in coping with daily life. These include in particular:

  • living
  • Finances
  • financial management
  • leisure activities
  • the promotion of private contacts and hobbies,
  • Visits to offices (preparation and support), unless the task of a legal guardian
  • Parenthood

The care time is usually designed for a longer period of time and individually designed.

The costs of the benefits are borne by the competent institution for integration assistance if an individual need for support is identified. If necessary, income and assets will be credited.

Which documents are required?

An informal application to the competent authority is sufficient. They will ask you to use a form and submit further documents.
