Young people in/after care have the right to get information which is
· easily accessible (regional, by internet, telephone)
· comprehensible
· absolutely confidential (no passing on of personal data, no denouncing by entering a special building)
· need orientated (giving attention to special questions)
· extensive (all information accessible, always keeping in mind that the questioner
  cannot ask for special information without special knowledge in the field)
· free of charge
· value-free (religious, politically)

regarding
· general and specific rights (children's rights, criminal law, special laws for young people in care)
· sexuality, contraception, AIDS (medical/psychological)
· drug abuse, alcohol, abuse, advice centres, withdrawal, therapy
· offers regarding financial aid
· where to get advice or find help
· education, training and career
· sexual abuse, cruelty

For this reason
1. the various sources of information should be coordinated so that there is a clear and easy to use network for
    information and advice.
2. Institutions have to be set up where young people can go to get special, easily accessible information or just
    to relax, so that the person seeking information is not immediately identified as someone with a certain problem.
3. The possibility of free, anonymous internet use including help regarding how to get the information (info homepage
    with links to all special offers) has to be given
4. Young people should be trained to become mediators of the various areas of information (peer mediation)
    and get the chance to pass on their knowledge.
5. Strict confidence and the possibility to complain for the one affected has to be guaranteed.
