Just like youth social work in schools, Chance 8.9.Plus is a youth welfare service provided under Section 13 of SGB VIII—Youth Social Work.
Chance 8.9.Plus is aimed at adolescents in the 8th and 9th grades and beyond (Plus) who have increased (academic) needs for assistance and support and who do not receive the appropriate academic or personal support from any other institution or do not actively take advantage of such support.
Chance 8.9.Plus is offered at the Büchenbach and Anger locations.
The services are free of charge and are subject to confidentiality.
Chance 8.9.Plus offers:
- Learning support
- Counseling on academic and extracurricular issues
- Support in preparing for school-leaving exams, e.g., Quali or MSA
- Help in difficult situations or crises
- Advice on difficult decisions
- Support during the transition from school to work.
