Look into our projects: Adios Pappenheimgasse!
Even in summer, our advisors at Startbegleitung für Asyl- und subsidiär Schutzberechtigte are busy advising! Here is a small insight into the last consultations at our Pappenheimgasse location – before the big move to our new advice center.

Since we need some time for the move, both advice centers will be closed from 19 to 23 August 2024!
