Accepting offers from the educational protection of children and young people
Description
Young people are entitled to a healthy physical and mental education. The protection of children and young people is therefore primarily based on two pillars: educational measures such as the implementation of youth protection projects (e.g. child and youth telephones) that have a preventive effect (educational protection of children and young people) and legal regulations to limit dangerous influences such as the serving of alcohol or the sale of tobacco products (regulatory protection of children and young people).
The City of Halle (Saale)'s Educational Child and Youth Protection is a point of contact for children and young people, but also for parents and other people and institutions involved in education.
It provides information, advice and mediates offers of help on various topics, such as media education, violence prevention, social learning, legal drugs/addiction, sexuality and everything that can become a problem for young people or parents. Furthermore, preventive information offers are carried out in various facilities such as day care centers, after-school care centers, schools of all forms and in child, youth and family facilities. Interested parties also receive information about legal provisions for the protection of children and young people, such as the Youth Protection Act and the Youth Employment Protection Act.
