Mindful Jugendhilfe is a non-profit organization based in Warendorf that specializes in a wide range of contemporary youth welfare services. The focus is on outpatient educational assistance such as educational support and socio-educational family support, which offer professional support and assistance to children, adolescents and their families in difficult life situations. Mindful works closely with youth welfare offices as well as schools and independent and public organizations to ensure tailor-made and sustainable help on site[1][3][7].
The mission of Mindful is based on the conviction that every family has the ability to resolve conflicts and create a harmonious coexistence. The company therefore relies on an educational approach of mindfulness that promotes communication, understanding and personal development. This mindfulness-based pedagogy is the guideline for all projects - from outpatient assistance to youth leisure activities and adventure education programs. Through this combination of professional competence and empathetic support, Mindful creates trusting access and sustainable changes in the everyday lives of families[1][3][5].
Mindful attaches great importance to a scientific foundation and continuous development of its methods. The close networking with scientific institutions and research projects ensures that the offers are up-to-date, of high quality and effective. In this way, youth welfare benefits from innovative concepts that are based on proven pedagogical and therapeutic findings[1].
In the area of sustainability, Mindful's offers indirectly contribute to social sustainability by acting preventively and strengthening families. The goal is to create long-term stable and self-effective structures in the living environments of young people and their families. Resources are conserved by favoring outpatient and community-based approaches that achieve sustainable social effects.
In addition to educational assistance, Mindful organizes a variety of leisure and adventure projects for young people that serve personal development and the promotion of social skills. These activities are an integral part of the holistic care approach and promote community, self-confidence and resilience[3][6].
Overall, Mindful Jugendhilfe stands for a modern, scientifically supported and human-oriented youth welfare concept that, through mindful pedagogy, cooperation and sustainability, provides lasting impetus for stable family and youth development.
