This is a project for networking with the target group of children of mentally ill parents in Bremen.
Since 2004, the network has pursued the goal of optimizing the cooperation between the systems of "child and adolescent psychiatry" and "adult psychiatry" in order to provide constructive and sustainable help to the affected children and their parents.
Our goals:
- The needs of the children and the affected parents can only be met through active cooperation between the systems of "child and youth welfare", "child and adolescent psychiatry" and "adult psychiatry"
- Encounters and cooperation between the systems of "child and youth welfare", "child and adolescent psychiatry" and "adult psychiatry" are not the goal but an integral part of the network
- Respect and appreciation for the perspectives of other systems support cooperation and engagement
- Previous experience in dealing with the target group, existing projects and models are used
- Developing from existing structures and integrating them into existing structures ensures consistency and sustainability.
