Solidarity Counseling
From individual problems …
The first step toward improving our life situation is to learn about our rights and to be able to address urgent problems. Counseling is therefore an important part of the neighborhood union Johannesplatz Solidarisch. Through counseling, we can strengthen ourselves, reduce stress, and avert existentially threatening situations.
If you would like to receive counseling, contact us to arrange an appointment or feel free to drop by during our opening hours.
... toward collective strength
But counseling alone is not enough in the long run. Often, people also have to take to the streets to fight for improvements. Many laws are themselves unjust and mainly protect the profit interests of others instead of our basic needs. For example, labor laws have, over the years, legally established increasingly longer and more flexible working hours. Rental laws regularly allow for continuously rising rents, and residency laws contradict fundamental human rights in many places.
We organize ourselves beyond counseling so that we can achieve concrete improvements for many people and fight for an anti-capitalist, solidaristic, and socially just society without oppression.
Our focus on consulting:
Rent, asylum, residency, citizens’ benefits, unemployment benefits…
Why does the neighborhood union Johannesplatz Solidarisch offer counseling?
Counseling is part of our political goal of fighting together for a society without exploitation and oppression. Counseling is about your questions and concerns.
For us as a neighborhood union, it is important to support people from the Johannesplatz district in resolving their problems. Through joint problem-solving, we want to empower people to independently find good ways to handle problematic situations in the future.
For us, it does not end with the solution to your concern. Many people have similar worries as you, and we do not want to face the same problems repeatedly. We want to identify the root causes of the problems and eliminate them together.
This also requires you and your active participation!
