The foster children's service in the city of Aachen, Sozialdienst Katholischer Frauen and Fachbereich Jugend und Schule, is looking for couples or individuals who can take in a child on a permanent basis.

For a variety of reasons, children can no longer live with their parents for a longer period of time or permanently. We are therefore looking for people who have experience in dealing with children and are willing to replace or supplement the functions of the parents.

In an information event, the foster children's service explains the requirements for a foster relationship, what preparations are made for taking in a child, what previous experience the children bring with them and what backgrounds they come from.

The information event will take place on Monday, May 4, at 6.30 p.m. in the

Department of Youth and Schools of the City of Aachen, Mozartstraße 2-10, Aachen, Room 207.

There is an additional opportunity to obtain advice by telephone every Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 12 noon on 0241 432-45777.

A lot of information is also available at www.aachen.de/pflegekinderdienst.

Important: The information event is exclusively for couples and individuals who live in the city of Aachen.
