Seeking Families: A Request for Family Units
The city of Neuss is reaching out to compassionate families who are willing to provide temporary or permanent foster care for children. In a bid to keep residents informed, the city offers a free newsletter that provides in-depth information on various aspects of life in Neuss, including social, cultural, and artistic developments.
Subscribing to this newsletter is essential for those who wish to stay updated on these topics. The newsletter, which does not consider spam and adheres to the city's privacy policy, can be found at this link.
Temporarily taken-in children can range from infants to toddlers or older children. The city's foster families receive advice, accompaniment, and training from the professional service of the youth welfare office. Full-time foster families, on the other hand, provide a long-term home and support the child's development.
In some cases, the temporary solution aims to overcome an acute crisis and provide a future perspective for the child, which may lead to long-term foster care relationships. Interested parties can contact the foster child service of the city of Neuss for more information by phone at 02131/905189 or by email at [email protected].
For those who wish to learn more about the foster care system in person, an information event is scheduled on Wednesday, May 27, 2020, at 7 pm in the Romaneum. Prior registration with the adult education center and compliance with hygiene regulations (mouth and nose covering and hand hygiene) are required for the event.
