Innosozial gGmbH

What Innosozial gGmbH does

Innosozial gGmbH is a non-profit social services provider (gemeinnützige GmbH) headquartered in Ahlen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, operating a multi-disciplinary welfare platform across Kreis Warendorf, Stadt Hamm, and adjacent districts. Founded in 1993 as "Gesellschaft für Sozialarbeit," renamed PariSozial gGmbH in 1997, and rebranded to Innosozial gGmbH in 2015, the organization employs over 370 staff across five centers and eight additional locations and delivers more than 250 distinct services spanning ten professional areas — Beratung, Bildung, Integration, Inklusion, Therapie, Förderung, Erziehung, Familie, Betreuung, and Begleitung. The portfolio includes three hospital- and center-embedded therapy practices (Ergotherapie, Logopädie, Physiotherapie) operating under the THERAPIEZENTRUM Röteringshof brand; early-childhood intervention (IFF); a Psychosoziales Kompetenzzentrum für Flüchtlinge with a Trauma Center; autism specialist services; ambulatory supported housing for people with mental illness and intellectual disabilities; foster-family mediation; residential child and youth welfare; and after-school care.

Revenue mechanics are diversified across statutory health insurance reimbursements (Krankenkassen, SGB V) for prescribed therapy services, government social-service contracting (federal BMFSFJ, NRW state ministry, Kreis Warendorf), and tax-deductible charitable donations accepted through the website's Spenden section. Distribution is conducted via walk-in and scheduled appointments at the five centers, embedded delivery in schools (OGS, TANDEM, school social work), embedded delivery in hospitals (St. Franziskus-Krankenhaus Ahlen early-rehabilitation partnership), home visits for mobility-limited clients, and a digital Hilfefinder tool for service discovery. Underlying technology is conventional: a WordPress-hosted website with accessibility tooling (ReadSpeaker) and a simple categorical-search Hilfefinder. There is no public API, mobile app, or proprietary software product — the platform is fundamentally human-delivered clinical and social-service work rather than a technology product. The organization is wholly owned by its parent association InnoSozial e.V. and managed by Heiko Sachtleber (Geschäftsführer); it is embedded in German welfare-federation infrastructure through Der Paritätische NRW membership.
