The fight for children's rights

Løvemammaene is a diagnosis-independent organization that works to educate and improve the rights of children and young people with chronic illnesses, disabilities and various support needs. We are passionate about support, freedom and equality for the entire family.

Rights

You may be entitled to various benefits and assistance schemes for supervision, care and attention for children and young people with illnesses and various assistance needs.

Get help

It is tough to stand alone in the application and complaint processes. We can guide you on your rights, how to deal with the system, and how to write a good application/complaint.

Lecture

We offer lectures, participation in theme evenings, larger professional days and conferences. We have several experienced speakers and we get very good feedback.

Our work

Learn more about us and our work for children and young people with chronic illnesses and disabilities, and their families. We work both organizationally, politically and with direct help and support to our members.

Events are coming back soon…

- It started as a rebellion against austerity in the care allowance scheme. After a year and a half of struggle, we were at the finish line. Change is possible as long as we stand together and believe in what we are fighting for!
- Because knowledge is power!
