Lilas Pause - Youth Centre for Girls*

AWO Soziale Dienste gGmbH

AWO Mädchen*treff Lilas Pause

Bremen, Germany

Description

The girls' meeting place Lilas Pause is the only open meeting place just for girls in the north of Bremen and an important contact point for girls aged 10-21 from the Vegesack district and beyond. The young girls* who come to us are very diverse in terms of age, families of origin and educational background. We write girls* with * to make it clear that we really mean ALL girls*, regardless of religion, nationality or sexual orientation. Girls* with disabilities are also very welcome. The main focus of our work is on recreational activities as well as intercultural and integration work during the open house. Within this framework, there are different offers such as intercultural cooking and baking, a dance offer, media offers as well as music and creative offers. A queer FLINTA group takes place once a week. Excursions are also offered, mostly during the holiday season. The participation of the visitors* in the planning and development of these offers is important to us.
