• About Integrationshaus

Center of Excellence for the Reception and Integration of Refugees and Migrants

Based in the Vienna district of Leopoldstadt, the Integrationshaus is a center of excellence for the reception and integration of refugees and migrants. For the past 27 years, Integrationshaus has offered them assistance with needs-based support in the fields of lodging and accommodation, psychosocial care, support and consulting as well as socio-pedagogical support, labor-market integration, education and educational guidance.

A particular focus is on the needs of people requiring special care, such as those who have undergone trauma, single parents, and both accompanied and unaccompanied minors. The approach is to bring the expertise to bear in protecting refugees, promoting solidarity and mutual respect, diversity and human rights in a wide variety of languages. With its holistic approach, the Integrationshaus is considered a pioneer on both the national and international level.

Last year, for example, Integrationshaus projects were officially endorsed by the Vienna Social Fund (FSW), which provides wide ranging social services on behalf of the City of Vienna. In the autumn of 2021 the Refugee Assistance Program of the FSW examined the adherence of the Integrationshaus to the agency’s quality guidelines. In this audit the Integrationshaus met every criterium of the guidelines with a score of 100%.
