Caritas-Wohnen Hannover

Caritas Wohnen Hannover is a specialized institution that focuses on housing options for adults with intellectual disabilities. The company offers a variety of housing options tailored to the individual needs and life situations of the residents. These include communal living in residential groups, small shared apartments with one or two roommates, and independent living in their own apartments, spread across the Südstadt, Stöcken, Mittelfeld and Vinnhorst districts in Hannover[1][3].

The main mission of Caritas Wohnen Hannover is to enable people with intellectual disabilities to live a self-determined and socially integrated life. The organization attaches great importance to actively involving the residents in social life and promoting their participation in social interaction. A dedicated team of around 60 employees supports the residents as assistants in their everyday lives and accompanies them individually in shaping their lives. There are also supplementary offers such as daily structures, which particularly help people of retirement age to spend their time meaningfully and without loneliness[1][3].

Values such as respect, care, social participation and individual support form the foundation of the work of Caritas Wohnen Hannover. As part of the church foundation Katholische Behindertenhilfe im Bistum Hildesheim, the institution anchors these values in people-oriented and ethically responsible action[5].

In terms of sustainability, Caritas Wohnen Hannover focuses primarily on social sustainability through long-term care and housing options that are geared towards a stable quality of life and social integration. Although no specific environmental or climate protection measures are explicitly mentioned on the website, the integration of residents into the districts and the promotion of community contribute to a sustainable and resource-saving way of life. The company also supports digital assistance systems that help older people and people in need of care, for example through fall or emergency detection and reminder functions - an approach that promotes security and independent living through modern technologies[additional information].

Caritas Wohnen Hannover stands as the epitome of a socially responsible organization that not only offers people with disabilities housing, but also focuses on quality of life, participation and individual support. The combination of diverse forms of housing, personal assistance and an integrative approach ensures that residents can develop their potential and lead as independent a life as possible. All offers are closely embedded in the urban community, which sustainably strengthens social interaction and enriches the living environment of the residents.

This comprehensive and value-oriented orientation makes Caritas Wohnen Hannover an important player in the social housing sector for people with intellectual disabilities in the Hannover region.
