Wohn- und Arbeitsgemeinschaft Suneboge

The Suneboge Living and Working Community is more than just a place to live; it unites housing, employment, and survival support under one roof. In a world where many people face challenges, Suneboge offers a space that enables stability and development. For over 50 years, the institution has been a firm part of Zurich's support network, assisting people with substance dependency and mental illness.

The concept of Suneboge is based on acceptance and individual support. Here, residents experience low-threshold care on equal terms. The offering is diverse and interlocking: from living space for stabilization, through a daily structure with guidance, to the provision of basic-supply services without barriers.

In the area of housing, a protected living space is created that helps people to breathe deeply and develop perspectives. Individualized guidance ensures that every resident receives the attention they need in order to be able to flourish.

The activities in the employment area provide a meaningful daily structure; residents are active in various areas such as the kitchen, housekeeping, bistro, and laundry. Here they can further develop their skills and become part of the community. An important component is the survival support, which helps people in acute emergencies without having to overcome hurdles such as registrations. Eating, showering, and resting can be used without preconditions. This is available from early to late in order to meet people's needs.

The community at Suneboge promotes not only social exchange, but also hosts cultural events and leisure activities. Here, celebrating, laughing, and time spent together are at the forefront, because belonging goes beyond four walls. Suneboge offers a space where people come together, support one another, and can develop new perspectives.
