Broad support for childcare benefits scandal

The municipality of Haarlem is offering comprehensive support to families affected by the childcare benefits scandal. This initiative is available to parents, ex-partners, children, and survivors who have been officially recognized by the Uitvoeringsorganisatie Herstel Toeslagen (UHT). The support program aims to help these individuals make a new start by focusing on five key life areas: family, housing, health, work, and finances. Assistance is personalized and can range from material goods like household items to professional services such as psychological care or career coaching. Participants are paired with a case manager to develop a customized action plan that lasts up to two years. There are no income or wealth requirements for this support, which is intended to be used as a one-time resource. To access this aid, eligible residents can contact the municipality of Haarlem directly via email or telephone to begin the assessment process for their individualized support trajectory.
