📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Flexfleks guides people with a care need, in particular people with different cultural backgrounds, a slight intellectual disability, addiction problems or behavioral problems.
The care offer is arranged in such a way that all clients have maximum opportunities to develop based on their background, competences and interests. A positive approach and reinforcement is a starting point here.
Flexfleks is also for people with complex problems. Often these are multiple healthcare issues in one. For example a (slight) intellectual disability and behavioral problems.
• There are personal or social problems, such as an addiction or behavioral problems;
• There are problems in several areas such as housing, debts, psychological problems;
• There is criminal and / or serious nuisance behavior, or this threatens to occur in the future;
• Relational and / or attachment problems are involved;
• Various network partners are needed to tackle the problem (eg mental health services, debt counseling, addiction care, criminal law partners, municipalities and police).

ℹ️ Additional information
TRAINING DURING THE ACTIVITY There will be an On Arrival training organized by the Dutch National Agency. We are looking for participants who can join for a minimum of 2 months and a maximum of 1 year. There will be a two-month trial period initially. If both parties are satisfied with the arrangement, there is a possibility to extend your stay. If you decide to leave before the end date of your contract, you must notify us in writing at least 1 month in advance.
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).
