The Hamburg project actively assists participants by offering courses for qualifications, dedicated counselling designed to develop career plans, using established networks to highlight opportunities, as well as outreach services – such as accompanying individuals to interviews. Jugend Aktiv Plus has been extremely successful in developing its capacity to reach young adults throughout Hamburg: with the assistance of a dozen partner organisations, services are provided in over 30 districts throughout the city.
A key aspect of this project is the successful interlinking of youth welfare and employment markets to provide young adults in vulnerable situations with long-term training and real opportunities for long-term, meaningful employment. Support in not only limited in career orientation but also provide support in health, financial issues and housing.
