Are you passionate about recovery-oriented rehabilitation, meaningful activities and creating development opportunities together with people in complex life situations? Then you might be the person we are looking for at Sønderparken.

We are looking for a colleague who is curious about what creates value, meaning and direction in the individual’s life, and who together with the citizen wants to create the best possible conditions for well-being, development and participation.

For us the essential question is not: "What is wrong with you?" but rather: "Who are you, what matters to you, and how can we together support the life you want to live?"

Therefore we are seeking a professional who sees relationships, participation, mastery and development as central paths to increased quality of life, and who is motivated to support citizens’ opportunities to take an active part in their own lives, strengthen their ability to act and participate in meaningful communities.

With us, recovery, rehabilitation and citizen involvement are fundamental beacons, because we know that hope, equal relationships and the experience of belonging lay the groundwork for development. Based on this understanding, we work every day to create frameworks where citizens feel met with respect, influence and belief in their own possibilities.
