Youth Care Plus 2026

This tender concerns the provision of Youth CarePlus services (closed youth care) for 2026, addressing severe upbringing and parenting issues for three youth care regions: Zeeland, West-Brabant West, and West-Brabant Oost.

Furthermore, the scope includes organizing civil trajectory consultations before, during, and upon completion of placements. This initiative aims to provide specialized, intensive support for young people facing significant challenges, ensuring continuity and effectiveness of care across the specified regions.
