Orientation and Relief for Young Caregivers
When young people regularly take responsibility for a sick or dependent family member, their own questions and worries often take a backseat. The Guidance Consultation from Young Carer Coach offers a protected space for individual concerns and concrete support on October 26, 2026.
Personal Consultation in a Protected Environment
The free online consultation is aimed at adolescents and young adults aged 16 to 30 who bear caregiving or caregiving responsibility within their family. In confidential one-on-one conversations via video or phone, participants receive professional orientation, practical tips, and space for their personal situation. If desired, the consultation can also be anonymous.
Help with Care, School, Training, and Employment
The focus is on questions that shape the everyday life of young caregivers: How can care be organized? What applications and agency contacts are pending? Where can relief offers be found? Topics related to school, training, studies, careers, and coping with psychological stress are also included. The consultation helps to navigate the caregiving system better and develop appropriate next steps.
Young Carer Coach as an Experienced Point of Contact
The organizer is An Deiner Seite - Gerhard und Gertrud Schmieder Foundation from Herrsching am Ammersee. With the Young Carer Coach project, the foundation creates a digital support and networking platform for young people with caregiving responsibility. The project was awarded the honorary prize of the Dr. Georg Schreiber Media Award from AOK Bayern in 2024 and achieved second place in audience voting at the Bayern2 competition Best Example in 2025.
Online Event Experience
Instead of travel and waiting rooms, participants can expect a low-threshold online offering with individual appointment advice. The calm atmosphere of conversation via video or phone facilitates the entry and creates time for personal questions. The event planning is tailored to the living reality of young caregivers.
Conclusion
The Guidance Consultation shows young people with caregiving responsibility that they do not have to face their challenges alone. Those seeking orientation, relief, or support can find a confidential first step toward concrete assistance here. Appointments can be scheduled online through the consulting platform AYGOnet; for questions or technical issues, the An Deiner Seite Foundation can assist via email.
