Minister allocates €441m for family centres

The government will invest €441m in a national network of youth and family centres, family affairs minister André Rouvoet announced today. The centres will focus on children from birth to the age of 19 with the aim of indentifying problems early and taking action.


The first centres will be in the cabinet’s list of 40 ‘problem neighbourhoods’, and located in health centres, community centres and schools.
