Values ​​citizens,
At the 27. October, regional elections. As a direct candidate for the city of Nordhausen I was nominated in March for the election of the Thuringian State Parliament. With this page I want to give you an opportunity, zulernen me closer to know and to learn, what topics I stand.

To my person
I, Steffen Iffland, bin 1972 Born in Nordhausen. Of 1979 to 1989 I visited the POS Albert Kuntz in Nordhausen-Salza. After that I started an apprenticeship as a machine- and plant fitter with specialization engine, which I touch with 2 graduated.
In the wake of reunification 1990, the armed forces were reduced, so I opted for the civil service.
During my community service at the St John's Ambulance, I made in Muenster training as a paramedic. In this interesting profession I worked until 1994. After an instructive work in construction, I would 1995 Employees at a reputable funeral home in Nordhausen.
financially secure, I did 1998 my hobby “Genealogy” to the job. A year later it was extended with a Publisher. Last year I could commit my 20-year anniversary.

family
1994 I met my wife, that I 2004 marry. Two years later, our daughter was born. Without the support of my family, my commitment would not be possible.

Association and voluntary work
Since my youth, I am interested in the region and its history. 1998 I was a member of the club and home Salzaer 1999 elected as its Chairman. The Union, consisting of the citizens- and Gewerbeverein Salza emerged, is to support the purpose of the writing of history and home care in the city. For years, the association is actively involved with its members in the care of Salza source.
I am a member in Nordhausen antiquity- and Historical Society as well as the development association Museum Tabakspeicher.

As Northern Homes “Knätscher” I criticized some developments in this city. But Knätschen alone does not help. So I was 2009, 2014 and 2019 you, the citizens, in the City Council and 2014 and 2019 chosen in the Kreistag. For this my thanks, that you have given me your trust.

As an outsider, I was by the members of the group first as Deputy, later in my 2. Legislature elected Group Chairman. In this role, I may also lead the newly elected group.

As a councilor I was a member of the Board of Trustees of the Friedrich Christian Lesser Foundation and thus the only Nordhäuser representatives in this venerable Foundation.
Annual 2012 I was appointed CFO appointed to the Foundation Stoye.

The volunteer work can be a broad insight into the actions and development of this region, what causes a good link with citizens of this city and therefore a “basic knowledge” generated.
