Young carers - children, teenagers and young adults who regularly take on caring or supportive tasks in their families - often remain hidden. They look after relatives with chronic illnesses, physical or mental impairments or addictions and often receive little support.
With this workshop, the South Westphalia Regional Office would like to raise awareness of the life situation of young carers, highlight the challenges and burdens they face and present existing support services.
