ie Malteser Werke und die Ipso gGmbH (International Psychosocial Organisation) freuen sich, mit einem neuen Kooperationsprojekt ab November 2018 gemeinsam die psychosoziale Versorgung von Geflüchteten und MigrantInn...en in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern auszuweiten.

In einer 12-monatigen praxisorientierten Schulung am Standort Rostock werden motivierte und geeignete Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund durch Ipso zu psychosozialen Counselorn qualifiziert. Im Anschluss werden diese u.a. die Migrationsarbeit der Malteser Werke mit einem mehrsprachigen psychosozialen Beratungsangebot ergänzen. Eine fortlaufende fachliche Supervision durch psychologische Ipso-Fachkräfte sichert hierbei die Qualität der Arbeit.
