Mission Leben: A Diaconal Institution with a Long Tradition
Mission Leben is a non-profit and diaconal company that, since its founding in 1849 as the successor to the Inner Mission Darmstadt, has been committed to helping people in difficult life situations. The focus is on supporting senior citizens, people with disabilities, and children and young people in social emergencies. With around 50 facilities in the Rhine-Main area, Mission Leben offers comprehensive services to enable a life of the greatest possible self-determination, security and dignity[1][2][4].
The main mission of Mission Leben is to support people in need and enable them to live a life of dignity. The company is guided by Christian values of charity and humanity[2][4].
Mission Leben promotes the development of new social services through the INTRA Lab in order to meet the challenges of modern social work[2]. In addition, the company is involved in voluntary work, such as at the Hospiz Am Wasserturm in Rodgau, where volunteer helpers are trained to meet the need for support and care[5].
In summary, Mission Leben combines tradition with modern social work and offers tailor-made solutions for people in different life situations to strengthen their self-determination and quality of life.
