Covid-19 break for families

Government-sponsored breaks for families – check eligibility now!

The coronavirus pandemic has taken a toll on many families. To help them recover, the Federal Ministry of Family Affairs (BMFSFJ) is making low-cost family vacation available in one of the participating family recreation facilities to families with lower incomes or who have relatives with disabilities.

Families who meet the eligibility requirements pay only about ten percent of the usual cost of board and lodging. They may stay up to one week (a maximum of seven nights). Families can claim the grant twice: once for a stay in 2021 and once for a stay in 2022.

For further information and an overview of the participating facilities, please refer to the BMFSFJ Website. If you have any questions, please contact our Social Counselling at sozialberatung@studentenwerk-leipzig.de or during the open telephone consultation hours.
