For youth welfare, family support and integration assistance.

Genogram software made for working with families.

Genograms in youth welfare

For care planning, case conferences and child protection: custody, residence, guardianship and current support measures are recorded right on the person. The youth welfare office and service providers appear as symbols of their own.

Genograms in family support

For family support work: a family’s relationships, strains and resources on one sheet, with 30 relationship types and an ecomap for the wider network.

Genograms in integration assistance

For participation and support planning for people with disabilities: show key people and the support network, record disabilities and conditions as attributes, and add institutions and services.

Why this exists

Genograms are part of the craft in youth and family welfare. For a long time the software for them was either outdated or expensive. Ever since I built myJugendhilfe I have wanted to make a tool that any practitioner can simply use, and to give it away for free. This is it.

Frequently asked questions.

What is a genogram?

A diagram showing a family across several generations: who belongs to whom, what the relationships are like, and which events and strains play a role.

How do I create a genogram?

Open the editor, drag people from the palette onto the canvas, connect couples and children, then add relationships and attributes. Finally export a PDF or save the file.

Which symbols does a genogram use?

A square stands for male, a circle for female, a diamond for unknown. Lines show couples, children and the quality of a relationship. myGenogramm follows the widely used McGoldrick and Gerson notation and generates the legend automatically.

Is myGenogramm suitable for youth welfare, family support and integration assistance?

Yes. It is made for youth welfare offices, service providers and support services: with attributes from youth welfare, an ecomap for the wider network and output for the case file.

What is the difference between a genogram and an ecomap?

A genogram shows the family across generations. An ecomap shows which institutions and people outside the family play a role. In myGenogramm both appear on one sheet.

Is myGenogramm really free?

Yes. It is free to use, privately and professionally, including in organisations and public authorities.

Where is my data stored?

Only on your device. There is no server that receives genograms, and usage is not tracked.

Do I need to install anything?

No. The editor runs in the browser. Apps for Mac, iPad and iPhone will follow in the App Store.

Is there a warranty?

No. The software is provided free of charge and as is. It does not replace professional judgement.
