District Administrator Steffen hits triplets: Exchange in Fürstenwalde enthusiastic!

In a remarkable initiative, District Administrator Frank Steffen met on December 23, 2024 in the Fürstenwalde family center for the first time on families of triplets. Several families were present for this special consecration event, including the siblings Johanna, Frieda and Greta as well as Emma, Ella and Erwin, who were born in 2021. The meeting served as a platform for the exchange of experiences and coping strategies. One mother expressly reported: "Without support, it would hardly be possible. You can hug two children at the same time, but the third child always remains", which underlines the challenges in everyday life of triplets. This sponsorship was originally launched by the former district administrator Manfred Zalenga and was also a central concern while Steffen's taking office.

exchange and support

The families took this opportunity to exchange ideas and share valuable tips that often go beyond everyday life. Jeanett Kleinert, coordinator of the “Early Aid” network, emphasized the importance of the meeting. "It was a nice and pleasant exchange between the parents. Challenges were discussed and the families were able to share valuable tips with each other," she said about the meetings that aim to form a strong community among families.
