Help for families: Free consultation hours started in Pirmasens!
In Pirmasens it becomes easier for families on a budget. The Pact for Pirmasens has launched a new advisory service that is specifically tailored to the needs of these families. The aim is to help citizens who often do not know what state benefits they are entitled to. This can be particularly important support for low-income households, as many of them have difficulty getting through the month, especially when it comes to expensive things such as school trips, explains Martina Fuhrmann, the coordinator of the Pact for Pirmasens. This initiative is intended to reduce fears and provide unbureaucratic help. rheinpfalz.de reports that ...
The first consultation hour will take place on Thursday, January 29th, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Marienstraße 6. Families who may be eligible for additional benefits are welcome. To avoid waiting times, we recommend booking an appointment online terminvergabe.stadt-pirmasens.de is possible. Unannounced visitors should expect longer waiting times.
Frequently asked questions and direct requests
The consultation hours not only offer general information, but also the opportunity to submit applications directly. This is particularly important because many citizens often do not know which subsidies they are eligible for, for example for school trips, explains Fuhrmann. One aim of the service is to ensure that families with low incomes have the support they need and are entitled to. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Pact Coordination Office on 06331 1444742 or by email pakt@pirmasens.de available.
The advisory service is part of a collaboration with the job center, the social welfare office and the family fund to offer the affected families the information and help they urgently need. Since November 2025, consultation hours have been offered every six weeks for low-income families, which are intended to have a positive impact on local community life.
