Waidhofen starts new youth counseling center for helping hands!
The municipality of Waidhofen an der Thaya is sending an important sign for the youth: From January 2025, a new youth counseling center will be opened, which will be found in a central location, more precisely in Niederleuthnerstraße/Schlossergasse. According to My district between the ages of 12 and 25 years can take advantage of free and anonymous advice. The team consists of specially trained youth workers who stand by the young people in various areas of life.
This initiative is based on a comprehensive youth survey of the youth and social work group as well as youth: Info Lower Austria. Almost 900 young people have expressed their opinions and wishes, whereby the need for a advice center was identified as the top priority. City representative Markus Loydolt is happy about the implementation and emphasizes the importance of this support for young people in order to be able to better manage challenges in school, work and everyday life. In addition to the advice center, the city also plans a youth club to offer young people a space for social contacts and leisure activities.
increasing poverty and growing challenges
The opening of the advice center falls into a time when Caritas draws attention to the increasing number of poverty figures and demands more support. According to noe.orf.at , poverty in Austria is an urgent problem that also affects the young generation. The developments show how important it is not only to create advisory services, but also to establish major support systems in order to fulfill the needs of young people.
