Germersheim district council: one -time subsidy for childcare associations decided!

In the district of Germersheim, an important financial step for the care associations was decided. On December 16, 2024, the district council adopted a one -time grant of around 98,000 euros for organizations such as the social service of Catholic men and women, workers' welfare and Lebenshilfe Germersheim. This support serves to compensate for the financial deficits of the clubs from last year. District Administrator Martin Brandl emphasized that this grant is by no means unconditional, but is only granted under certain conditions. According to the district council members, such measures show the essential role of the care associations in promoting a self -determined life for supervised people.

role of the care association and legal support

The care associations are indispensable when it comes to regulating legal affairs for people who are no longer able. In accordance with the right of care, these associations support the supervised persons to a decisive extent by acting as legal representatives. As Kreis-germersheim.de , the statutory support usually begins at the request of the person concerned or ex officio. Medical reports and personal hearings by the care court are decisive.

The targeted support of the care association is essential to make their tasks more efficient. This also includes the optimization of the work processes, for example through free organizational advice from the country. Christoph Buttweiler, the first district deputy, emphasized that no efficient care would be possible without the support of these clubs. The goal is not only to adapt the number of support, but also to improve the quality of the support offers, so that supervised people can be optimally supported in all areas of life.
