Descripción de la actividad

The home" THE FREIHOF " hosts 52 under-age children aged between 3 and 18 years old, and young adults up to 21 years old, within the scope of educational assistance, decided on by the children's judge, when the child’s health, the education, personal and relational developments seem to be compromised in his family circle.
