[Youth work with the disabled--a contribution to social rehabilitation (author's transl)].
It is particularly the disabled children and adolescents who suffer most from marginal group life in our society. For a sound social and emotional development they need interaction with their peers. Youth group activities as carried out in the Federal Republic of Germany, for instance by the Georgspfadfinder, provide the disabled young people with living space which enable them to train social skills and come to terms with the environment. These wide-ranging, common activities can help to change the attitudes of all participants, thus enhancing the process of social integration.
