Our mission
Our mission is
“… to support people who find themselves in difficultsocial circumstances (in particular those people facing adverse living conditions, people who are disadvantaged in the job market and people with a disability and/or who require care). We aim to promote social participation and inclusion in line with Christian social responsibility, drawing on expertise from within the field. This incorporates educational programmes and public relations activities.“

Why Erlach?
5
o 16th century: relocation of the glass industry to the area of the Mainhardt Forest and the Löwensteinmountains
o A decisive factor for the expansion to 16 glassworks: availability of firewood, quartz sand, water and a workforce
o 1736: Conrad Wenzel established the “Örlach“ glassworks from which the name “Erlach” is derived. Of all the glassworks in the region, “Örlach” survived the longest. Around 100 workers were employed in the factory.
o Structural changes and industrialisation:Rominger, an entrepreneur, acquired the glassworks in 1865 and relocated them to Zuffenhausen (today’s Stuttgart‐Zuffenhausen) leaving behind the elderly and infirm.

In the wake of industrialisation: mass poverty
Impoverishment of broad sectors of the population in the 1830s and 1840s.
Reasons: social and economic change and the industrial revolution, coupled with agricultural crises (poor harvests) and the first macroeconomic recession of modern times
New forms of economy: cottage industry, the publishing industry, manufacturing, a factory system
Consequence: a dependent labour force without traditional social support systems such as guilds.
The workforce is easily replaceable and existentially susceptible to economic crises.

Work instead of charity: workers’ settlements
1870s: licensed begging as a mass phenomenon
Problem: unemployment
1882: establishment of the first workers’ settlement: “Ackerbau‐KolonieWilhelmsdorf“ (Wilhelmsdorf agricultural colony) near Bielefeld
Founder: Friedrich von Bodelschwingh(Protestant pastor, theologian, representative of the “Inner Mission”, a movement of the protestant church in Germany)
Aim: “… to provide work for the unemployed and to empower those people leading a vulnerable and failed existence through the Christian values of order and discipline, encouraging them to believe in themselves as well as in God“,
In many cases, an authoritarian system imposing strict rules

1883: The “Verein für Arbeiterkolonien in Württemberg e.V.“ (Association of workers’ settlements in Württemberg) is founded in Stuttgart.
Acquisition of Dornahof near Altshausen in the district of Ravensburg
