title: [Can Peers Achieve Access to Socially Burdened Families? Evaluation Results of the Programme 'Community Mothers in Berlin-Kreuzberg'].
abstract: This study evaluated a setting-based programme whose goal was to promote the healthy upbringing of children in a disadvantaged district through the empowerment of mothers. Women from the neighbourhood were trained as community mothers (CM) to impart their knowledge in home visitations to other mothers. 67 CMs were trained. They gained access to 118 families via home visits and to 191 families in single contacts. Information and support resulted in positive changes in all families available for interviews (n=44). The families also gained access to the professional help system.
