Now new in Dippoldiswalde: Center for Children's Rights opened!

In a time when the protection of our children is more than ever in focus, the work of organizations such as the Deutsche Kinderschutzbund KV Sächsische Schweiz-Osterzgebirge e.V. is indispensable. With a wide range of offers, the organization not only aims to promote children, but also to support and sensitize parents. The programmed activities include the "Unicus" course course for babies, which takes place every Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. In addition, there are parent-child groups on Wednesdays and every Monday to Wednesday the "happiness time" for children who can be used between 2:00 p.m. and 3:30 p.m.

These initiatives are part of a more comprehensive plan to support the social and emotional development of children in the region. A special highlight is the open offer "Spielmobil in the Polypark Dippoldiswalde", which takes place every Thursday from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. Here children have the opportunity to let off steam and gain interactive experiences. Parents can also take part in special breakfasts on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month to exchange ideas and make new contacts.

The upcoming events, including the children's city in the second summer vacation week and the children's flea market in September, are not only for the children, but also a great opportunity for the parents to share their experiences.

Current challenges in child protection

While these positive initiatives blew, the current figures on the child's welfare risk show that there is still a lot to do. According to a report by bpb , around 62,300 cases of child welfare hazard have been determined since 2012. Over 59 % of these cases. of neglect, while physical and psychological ill -treatment also occurs. Infants and toddlers under the age of three remain particularly vulnerable, which in many cases have to be saved from stressful living conditions.

The statistics of the Federal Statistical Office makes it clear that the danger to children often comes from different sides. Neglect, physical abuse, psychological abuse and sexual violence are the most common forms of danger. These multiple loads show how important preventive and supportive measures are.

The challenge remains to protect and support the affected children, while the focus is on helping offers that are tailored to the needs of every family. The offers of the Child Protection Association in Dippoldiswalde are a good example for this and offer a valuable approach to promote both children and parents and protect in the long term.
