Together strong: Smog parents' school starts new courses in Vogelsbergkreis!

In an impressive collaboration, Home for Kids and the Smog Parent School are committed to better psychosocial care for young people! Meike Dihstelhoff, the head of Home for Kids, emphasizes the urgency of her mission: "Our association promotes projects for the psychosocial care of young people with mental trauma and corresponding prevention projects." The “Doing School without Violence” Initiative is now being reinforced by the Smog parents' school in Vogelsbergkreis to counteract traumatic experiences of children who often arise in their own family environment.

The project is funded with financial support of 1,500 euros, whereby Home for Kids contributes 20 percent of this sum from its own resources. Interested parties can support the project directly on the homepage www.homeforkids.de. "We look forward to the cooperation!", The Smog board members Erwin Maisch and Werner Köhler call out, while introducing Wolfgang Keller as a new speaker, who will get into the Smog Parent School with fresh vigor at the beginning of next year.

unique learning opportunities for parents

The Smog parents' school offers valuable knowledge of the upbringing and development of children. Here parents learn how to build positive relationships with their children and recognize behavioral problems. The courses deal with important topics such as emotional intelligence, conflict resolution and communication. Wolfgang Keller announces that the first course starts on February 5, 2025 at 6:30 p.m. and takes place weekly in the rooms of Softdoor GmbH in Lauterbach. Participation is free of charge and the places are limited - only 12 to 18 participants can participate. Registrations are already possible!

Erwin Maisch, a veteran of violence prevention work, looks back on 22 years of smog in the Vogelsberg district and emphasizes the importance of this initiative. "Together with our partner association Jollydent, we have been making signs in the violence prevention. This partnership shows how important it is to support the next generations and to offer them a safe environment.
