We are an in-clinic foundation based in Munich and help children who are having a hard time – in Germany and in crisis regions around the world – through targeted therapies and research.
We help children with disabilities and those at risk of having them, train specialists and promote research in the field of social pediatrics. We help children in war and crisis regions through trauma therapy and support projects for diagnostics and therapy for developmental disorders, behavioral problems and regulatory disorders.
We work closely with scientists from various disciplines and promote professional and interdisciplinary exchange. We also support scientific projects and work closely with the Chair of Social Pediatrics.
The foundation was founded in 1991 by the pediatrician Prof. Dr. Theodor Hellbrügge (1919-2014) with the aim of supporting families by promoting research in the field of social pediatrics and disseminating early diagnosis, early therapy and early social integration programs.
