Self-help promotion
Sometimes it helps most to talk to people who are going through the same thing. Self-help groups offer those affected and their relatives precisely this space - for meeting, sharing and mutual support.
ZF BKK sees self-help as a valuable addition to professional care. That is why we actively promote this commitment - at regional level and beyond.

Self-help - what's behind it?
Self-help groups and organizations offer
- Space for personal encounters and exchanges with people affected in the same way
- Everyday tips and experiences - from people who are affected themselves
- Information on the clinical picture, therapy or rehabilitation options
- Help in the search for further offers - also for non-members
Today, there is a suitable group or organization for almost every illness or disability - analogue or digital.
How to find your group
You can find out whether there is a group for your clinical picture or life situation, for example, via the central contact point NAKOS: www.nakos.de
Many self-help organizations also offer a search function on their website with an overview of groups and contact information.
Our support
The amount of funding is based on a statutory basis (Section 20h SGB V) and is regulated by law and adjusted annually. We invest these funds specifically in regional projects and structures - so that those affected are noticeably supported locally.
