German courses & more – support for immigrants with cognitive impairments
We support immigrants with cognitive impairments in learning German, finding their way around everyday life, building social contacts and actively participating in social life.
We offer simplified German courses, individual consultations, and support with questions about health, social benefits, leisure activities, and career prospects. This is complemented by a self-help group that provides a space for exchange, interaction, and new contacts.
All services are free of charge and are supervised by an experienced team.
The project is a collaborative project between the German Red Cross (DRK) Bremen district association and the State Working Group for Self-Help.
