Family Navigators for Dissen

Family Guides for Dissen have been supporting families and individuals in Dissen facing challenging life situations since 2010. As a low-threshold grant offering from the Dissen Foundation, the trained professionals serve as personal contacts at any time and without bureaucratic obstacles. They assist with administrative procedures, form completion, and provide practical household tips as well as care counseling. Whether dealing with separation, caring for a relative, financial difficulties, or managing everyday life – the family guides visit those seeking advice directly at home and collaboratively develop concrete solutions. The service is aimed at all private individuals residing in Dissen and is 100% funded. Requests can be made continuously to ensure prompt assistance.

The aim of the funding is the sustainable improvement of quality of life through individual counseling and support. The family guides act as intermediaries between families, schools, authorities, and social institutions, promoting self-help skills on an equal footing. Through confidential advice on parenting issues and support with financial and care-related questions, they help reduce tensions and create stability. The service complements existing support within the social network of the city of Dissen by providing flexible, needs-oriented assistance. Families and individuals seeking to alleviate daily burdens or overcome crises find in the family guides an experienced team that develops timely and concrete solutions and provides long-term support.
