Educational aids
The upbringing and care of a child is primarily carried out by the parents. Sometimes, however, additional assistance from the state may be necessary in education.
Although the assistance is granted to the parents, it is based on the interests of the child or young person. This means that the child or adolescent must be involved in the decisions concerning him/her. Among other things, the following are offered:
- Educational counselling,
- social group work,
- educational assistance,
- Care assistant,
- socio-educational family support,
- Education in a day group,
- full-time care,
- home education and other forms of assisted living, or
- intensive socio-pedagogical individual care.
In addition, the Youth Welfare Office decides on the granting of integration assistance and assistance for young adults and common forms of housing for mothers/fathers and children.
Which documents are required?
Documents may be required. Please contact the competent authority.
What are the fees?
The financing of the help for education is provided by the Youth Welfare Office. The latter provides the services itself or assumes the costs agreed with the institutions. The use of the costs incurred will be decided on a case-by-case basis.
What deadlines do I have to pay attention to?
Deadlines may have to be observed. Please contact the competent authority.
Applications / forms
Please submit applications for help with education to the youth welfare office of your district or your independent city.
