Descrição da organização

The "Verein Offene Jugendarbeit Hohenems - Association für Youth Work Hohenems" was founded in July 2005. The association is non-commercial and politically unaffiliated. Aim of the association is the development of youth work as an additional contribution to youth education provided by schools and other youth-orientated associations.

We provide opportunities and activities for young people to discover their own personal aims und limits especially regarding creativity and developing their own personality. Our work should support young people during their teenage years and with the complex task of becoming an adult. To fulfil our goals, we provide two youth centres (s'Kästle and Fair Future), where young people have the opportunity to socialise and participate in all kind of workshops.

The target group are young people between 12 and 18 years old - but it´s also open for older and younger youngsters. For example: 10 years old and 20 years old. We also set our focus on young people with migrant background, young people with disabilities or educational shortcomings and young people facing poverty. We also provide gender specific youth work and offer a special programme for girls every month. We see ourselves as a family.
