About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Haus Braunschweig is a residential home for people with addictive disorders. The help offered by the institution aims to enable the residents to live independently again, to take responsibility for themselves and especially for their health. For those clients who lack the skills for an autonomous way of life, we offer social therapeutic assistance. The residents are active members of the daily business for example do woodwork, fix bicycles, cook and do other various free time activities. These activities prepare the residents for a self-supported life.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteers will be provided with a shared furnished apartment in Braunschweig. The apartment also has a kitchen in which the volunteers can prepare food for themselves. The volunteers will receive a meal allowance in the amount of 270 € per month as well as 150 € of pocket money per month. Moreover, either a local transport ticket or a bicycle will be provided to the volunteer.

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteers are exempted to attend the ESC seminars. In addition, they take part in a language course to help them improve their language skills. The costs for the course are paid by the host organization Paritätischer Braunschweig. Permanent contact persons in the institution are available to the volunteers. Furthermore there are cross-institutional mentors and the opportunity to participate in internal training for volunteers. Regular exchange meetings and participation in the youth-pass enable documentation of learning progress.

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).
