Who are we and what do we do?
We are a team of experts, who want to help citizens at risk “in the field” (on the streets). We focus on counselling in areas, where it is needed but the access is limited.
The City Streetwork Team launched its activities during the pandemic in 2020 and has grown to the current staff of 10 people.
From the organisational perspective within
the City Hall of the capital of the Slovak Republic, Bratislava, we are an office of the social affairs section.
We regularly deal with situations covering:
Homeless People and Public Space
We help resolve calls from our citizens regarding homeless people, in particular, their stay on city premises.
We help the homeless by counselling and informing them, as well as by mediating contacts with third-sector organisations which may be able to help them further.
Youth at Risk in Nightlife Environment
Mobile Social Work in Bratislava’s Pentagon Area
We help people in a difficult situation in this area by offering social counselling in the areas of housing, employment, and finances, or mediating contacts to other forms of help.
We deal with local issues by prevention of social exclusion and support of sustainable changes.
