Reception center for people affected by coercive measures for assistance purposes and out-of-home placements up to 1981
People directly affected by coercive assistance measures and out-of-home placements prior to 1981 (administrative assistance, castration, sterilization, forced abortion, forced adoption, as well as children in care and institutionalized children) can contact us.
Victims' Aid has been given the task of accompanying and supporting people who have been the victims of such measures. We can help you request documents from cantonal archives or other institutions that may help you understand your past.
Further information on this subject can be found on the website of the delegate for victims of coercive assistance measures: : www.fuersorgerischezwangsmassnahmen.ch
