MeG betreutes Wohnen gGmbH

What MeG betreutes Wohnen gGmbH does

MeG betreutes Wohnen gGmbH is a Berlin-based non-profit (gemeinnützige GmbH) that delivers psychosocial care and integrated psychotherapy for first-generation migrants aged 18 and over, particularly refugees who have experienced trauma, and — since January 2024 — therapeutically supervised housing for pregnant women and parents with children under six. Services are delivered through five locations across Berlin (Moabit, Kreuzberg, Neukölln, Tempelhof, and a business office in Neukölln) by a multidisciplinary team of social workers, licensed psychotherapists, art therapists, music therapists, and linguistic/cultural mediators, with deep specialty in residence law and trauma-informed care.

The core service portfolio comprises assisted living under § 131 SGB IX (integration aid), integrated psychotherapy, cultural and linguistic mediation, group activities and psychoeducational groups, and the newer § 19 SGB VIII therapeutic housing program. Services are largely center-based at MeG locations, supplemented by outreach (aufsuchende Arbeit) to clients in their own apartments or shared dormitories. There is no software platform or proprietary technology stack; the offering is a labor-intensive, clinically delivered service.

Revenue is generated primarily through government commissioning by Berlin district offices (Bezirksämter Mitte, Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Neukölln, and Tempelhof-Schöneberg) and the Landesamt für Flüchtlingsangelegenheiten under SGB IX and, more recently, SGB VIII, with supplementary donations from individuals. The sole shareholder is Prowo Berlin gGmbH, and the organization is part of the Netzwerk Sozialträger consortium and Paritäter Berlin. The organization was founded in 2012 and is led by Managing Directors Ulrike Hörmann-Lecher and Angelika Ingendorf.

Core offering

MeG betreutes Wohnen gGmbH provides psychosocial care, integrated psychotherapy, and assisted living services for first-generation migrants (18+) in Berlin, particularly refugees experiencing trauma. Services are delivered under German social law frameworks (§ 131 SGB IX and § 19 SGB VIII) and include individual social work support, licensed psychotherapeutic treatment, linguistic and cultural mediation, group activities, and specialized therapeutic housing for pregnant women and mothers/fathers with children under six years.

Product overview

MeG Betreutes Wohnen gGmbH operates as a single integrated psychosocial service offering rather than a platform-plus-modules architecture. The core offering combines assisted living (Betreutes Wohnen) under § 131 SGB IX with integrated psychotherapy, both supported by linguistic and cultural mediation services. The organization provides these services through multiple locations across Berlin (Turmstraße, Grimmstraße, Kottbusser Damm, Gotenburger Straße, Hobrechtstraße). Services include individual care coordination, psychotherapy treatment, and group activities (cooking, outings, cultural events, sports groups, language café, orientation training, psychoeducational groups). Since January 2024, a specialized housing program for mothers/fathers with children has been added at Gotenburger Str. 2.
