Procedure details

Supplementary independent participation advice (EUTB) is an important new advice option for people with disabilities and their relatives. It serves as a guide in the social landscape and helps people seeking advice to find their way through the maze of offices and specialist agencies.

The EUTB advice centers are a complementary service that exists in addition to existing advice structures. The basic idea is to provide advice at eye level from those affected for those affected. In the EUTB advice centers, people with disabilities act as "experts in their own cause" for the interests of people with disabilities. For this reason, the EUTB advice centres are usually organized by self-help groups for people with disabilities or self-help groups for relatives. They contribute their own knowledge and experience. The advice centers are not linked to other official structures, but are independent. In this way, the EUTB helps to strengthen and promote self-determination and participation.

People seeking advice from the EUTB can obtain advice on their personal circumstances. Support is provided on the following topics, among others

  • Applying for benefits
  • Participation in school life and educational opportunities
  • Participation in working life
  • Participation in community life, for example in social and cultural life
  • Housing and leisure
  • Mobility, care and assistance

The EUTB advises

  • People with disabilities
  • people who are at risk of becoming disabled and
  • their relatives.

Contact an EUTB advice center. You can find information about the counseling services under "Further links".

The consultation is free of charge.
