Kopfsachen e.V. - Mirko von Bargen

Kopfsachen strengthens the mental health of young people. Founded in 2020 out of the question of why we learn so much in school – but not how to cope with stress, anxiety, or crises. Our solution to mental health issues is preventative workshops in schools, as well as digital programs for students, teachers, school social workers, and parents. Our services build self-confidence, encourage access to support services, and foster resilience. Work with over 20 employees and 80 volunteers. Together with strong partners such as the Deutsche Bahn Foundation, Beisheim Foundation, Crespo Foundation, and Aktion Mensch, Kopfsachen have already reached over 30,000 people at our five locations. Founded primarily by psychologists, etc.; mental health for students, etc.; 27 permanent employees and approximately 200 volunteers; Psychology students are trained and implement concepts in schools.

Funded by foundations and also through collaborations with health insurance companies.
