Women's Center

Significant life events such as the separation from a partner or other important person, the birth of a child, the death of a loved one, and other personal or professional crises can intensify anxieties about one's livelihood and (financial) independence. In such situations, it can often be helpful to receive support or to share experiences with others.

We offer confidential (anonymous upon request), independent and professional advice on all matters relating to:

• Securing livelihoods and social benefits (unemployment benefit, citizen's allowance, housing benefit, basic income support) as well as in relation to family benefits (child benefit, parental allowance, maintenance (advance payment)).
• A more independent financial situation and in terms of long-term (economic) stabilization
• Coping with little money and limited resources, as well as dealing with prejudices against living in the "wrong" neighborhood or buying "outdated clothes"
• Dealing with partners, relatives, or friends who try to create and maintain financial dependence or control or manipulate you through money
• In addition to our counselling services, we plan to offer opportunities for exchange and self-help again in the future. Please feel free to contact us if needed.

The asterisk (*) after "women" represents the diversity of identities, be it in categories such as gender (e.g., cis, trans*, inter*) or culture, class, or physical condition. "Women" refers to all people who define themselves as women. We are here for all women* and individuals who, due to their gender or gendered perceptions, require advice, support, or exchange regarding our counseling topics.
