📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Treffpunkt Cherisy is a public district meeting point in the Chérisy residential area. The goals of the work are: Meeting people of all ages, integrating disadvantaged groups and offering support services. The task of the employees is to react to the social conditions or the needs of the people, to support them in their concerns, to initiate offers and to provide assistance.

The residents live here largely independently in individual apartments. They can take part in leisure activities and receive advice and psychosocial care. The working time is 38 hours/week distributed within the center's opening hours: Monday to Friday from 9:00 am to 13:00 and from 14:00 to 17:00. There are 29 days of vacation, some covered by closing days, some at leisure (by arrangement with the facility). Two hours of German language course included.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
