Request participation in social group work


Participation in social group work is intended to help older children and adolescents overcome developmental and behavioral problems.

Social group work can be useful for children and young people if they

  • repeatedly get into violent confrontations,
  • have little self-confidence and behave conspicuously,
  • cannot hold their own.

In the social group work, older children and young people meet regularly under the guidance of trained pedagogical staff.

Social group work encourages social learning. In doing so, it conveys positive experiences, experiences and insights, thus promoting respect for others and one's own self-confidence. In this way, the young person should become a self-reliant and community-oriented personality.

Objectives and content depend on the topic of social group work. Contents can be:

  • development of group dynamics,
  • Recognize the triggers of one's own anger and aggression,
  • perceiving and expressing one's own feelings,
  • perceiving and recognising one's own and others' boundaries,
  • Resolving conflicts peacefully.

It is a type of educational aid. It may also apply to young adults.

Process flow

  • Please contact the responsible Youth Welfare Office.
  • In a personal conversation, you will be shown possible help. This can be, for example, participating in a social group work for your child.
