Participation Consultant Youth Desk Income
We support young people with all their questions regarding finances, work, learning, and care. These income issues are viewed from the resident's context to arrive at broad solutions. You ensure that the starting point is that the resident can access benefits and necessary financial provisions in a specific situation, correctly and timely, if needed. The Social Domain stands alongside, for, and behind the residents of the municipality and deals with matters that directly affect the resident.
Our task is to organize things in such a way that residents feel helped and heard. This means that in everything we do, we ask ourselves: what is its contribution to the residents or businesses of the municipality? It also means that we think in terms of opportunities and possibilities. Creativity, an informal approach, and connecting with your colleagues are important to us.
