The Kinderschutz-Zentrum Berlin is a dedicated and experienced provider of youth welfare, founded in 1975, with the central goal of reducing the occurrence of all forms of child welfare endangerment and violence against children and alleviating its consequences.
The main mission of the Kinderschutz-Zentrum Berlin is to protect the welfare of children through the consistent development, application, and dissemination of specific aids that address the causes of violence. The association sees itself as part of the Berlin network for child protection and works towards social and political improvements. The values of the center are based on a commitment to the rights and well-being of children and adolescents, as well as collaboration with parents and other professionals to create a protected and safe living environment[5].
The Kinderschutz-Zentrum Berlin is committed to long-term and sustainable solutions in the field of child protection. It promotes systematic prevention and early assistance to recognize and prevent child welfare endangerments at an early stage. Through the establishment of the National Center for Early Assistance (NZFH) and the integration of health professionals, particular attention is directed towards families with infants and young children to minimize risks during pregnancy and early childhood[2][5].
The center is financially supported by grants from the Berlin Senate Administration for Education, Youth, and Family, as well as by fines and donations. This support enables the center to maintain and further develop its diverse services at a high level[5].
Through its comprehensive offerings and close cooperation with various actors in the social and health sectors, the Kinderschutz-Zentrum Berlin makes a significant contribution to the protection and support of children and families in need.
