A significant portion of these, 784, were for Ukrainian schoolchildren. This number represents a notable increase from previous years, with 377 consultations in 2020/2021 and 406 in 2019/2020.
The District Director and Social Affairs Director Dirk Brügge have reported a surge in counseling workload for children and their parents from distant countries, particularly Ukrainian schoolchildren. To meet this demand, local authorities and schools have taken several steps.
Expanding counseling teams specialized in newcomer support, offering targeted language and integration courses, collaborating with social and psychological support services, providing additional training for teachers, and establishing dedicated points of contact for Ukrainian families are among the measures taken.
Moreover, the Rhein-Kreis Neuss has found and trained numerous Ukrainian and Russian-speaking volunteers within a few weeks to facilitate communication. Consultations are offered both on-site and digitally to meet the current high demand.
