By your presence and input, you take the pressure off and bring peace to the family! and what do you get out of it? • A lot of appreciation! • An extensive training combined with e-learning • Contact with other volunteers • Professional guidance • Thematic meetings • Personal development • Travel expenses Are you our new volunteer?

You will receive a response as soon as possible. Do you have a question first? Then send a message. Experiences of our volunteers Karina: "In my work as a nurse, I regularly gave unsolicited advice. Now that I provide support to a family as a volunteer, I know that this often does not work. By taking the time and listening carefully, a bond is created and it becomes clear what the family really needs. I find it fun and special to visit a family at home and help them along the way and also do fun things together with the children. A father told me that he had gained more self-confidence. Nice to hear”. Anita: “Experiencing a reunion between parent and child feels like a beach moment in slow motion” Monica: “I had just started at Humanitas when they asked me if I wanted to guide Marieke’s children. I was shocked when I heard that she had not seen her children for more than 5 months at that time. Heartbreaking. For Marieke as a mother, but especially for the children. I am a child of divorced parents myself. And I know from my own experience what it does to you when you can no longer or are not allowed to see one of your parents. Many parents make the mistake of using their children as a chess piece in mutual arguments. What many parents do not know is that the anger at the ex-partner is unconsciously projected onto the child. After all, they ARE part dad and part mom. And I haven't even mentioned the conflict of loyalty that these children have."

Kind aan Huis is looking for families in Tiel and surrounding areas

Child at home in Tiel You want children to grow up in a pleasant environment. Sometimes there are tensions within the family or there is little attention, for example due to illness, poverty, social isolation or divorce. Then it can be nice that, as a child, you can be in a different environment once a week, with a different family. An environment where you can be a carefree child and feel welcome; “At home in another house.” Not having to care for your child for a while can also bring peace and space for parents. Kind aan Huis is a program in which volunteer home families open their homes and hearts for half a day every week to children/young people (0-18 years) from the municipality of Tiel. They offer the child a safe place and, if necessary, give the parent(s) of the requesting family some peace and space. The home family is therefore a valuable support for both the questioning parent(s) and the child. Home families of all compositions and ages can register! The home families are involved and empathetic. They understand that sometimes a small change of environment can make a big difference. Contact between the home family and the requesting family is made on the basis of equality and trust. How does Kind aan Huis work? • After registration, the coordinator will meet the requesting and home families. • The coordinator looks for the right connection. • Humanitas applies for a Certificate of Good Conduct for all family members of the home family, aged 18 years and older. • The families meet with the coordinator present. • Agreements are made about the connection. • The coordinator supervises the connection, which means that she is available for questions or if there is anything. • The child participates in the home family, receives positive attention and participates in everyday activities. • This concerns temporary shelter, one half day per week for a period of one year. • Home families receive training and guidance from the project coordinators. Are you interested or would you like to know more? Call, text or email the project coordinators: [email address hidden] Sonja van Herk [phone number hidden] Ingrid Veerman [phone number hidden]

Regional board is looking for a secretary

Weekly · 3 to 8 hours

At Zonnebloem, it's all about people. We do everything we can to give people with a physical disability an unforgettable moment. By making home visits and organizing adapted activities, Zonnebloem wants to prevent loneliness and contribute to the quality of life. We are looking for a secretary for the regional board of Zonnebloem region Zaanstreek-Waterland. The secretary has a central role in managing the administrative and organizational tasks of the regional board. The most important responsibilities are: - Organizing meetings (in consultation) and taking minutes: preparing the agenda and keeping the minutes. The regional board has a meeting once a quarter and a regional meeting with the representatives of the departments once a quarter. - Managing correspondence: handling incoming and outgoing communication. - Forwarding relevant e-mails to the other board members. - Archiving documents: keeping important documents such as minutes, reports and correspondence. - Provide support within the regional board: assist in the organization of events and activities and perform other administrative tasks. De Zonnebloem is working on the future-proofing of the departments, for which De Zonnebloem works with a multi-year plan. The regional board helps the departments with this. For example, we have a policy meeting once or twice a year and there are several theme meetings. The secretary is also involved in this. Since this position is voluntary, enthusiasm and commitment to the mission of De Zonnebloem are often at least as important as specific experience.
