Apply for help for young adults

Young adults receive suitable and necessary help if and as long as their personality development does not guarantee a self-determined, responsible and independent way of life. As a rule, assistance is only granted until the young person reaches the age of 21; in justified individual cases, it is to be continued for a limited period of time beyond this age. Termination of assistance does not preclude the granting or continuation of assistance.

Assistance for young adults is possible as assistance for young adults, provided that it is suitable for young adults, whereby the young adult takes the place of the person with custody or the child or young person.

Examples:

  • Counselling in the sense of youth, family and educational counselling
  • social group work
  • Educational assistance (care assistance)
  • temporary out-of-home placement (e.g. full-time care, home education or other assisted living)
  • intensive individual socio-educational support
  • Integration assistance in the case of mental disability

Even after the end of the assistance, young adults are advised and supported within the framework of aftercare within an appropriate period of time in their independence to the necessary extent and in a form that is comprehensible, understandable and perceivable for them.
