Become a MeeleefGezin and help a vulnerable child from Utrecht!

On Wednesday evening, October 15, we will hold an online information evening about becoming a MeeleefGezin. A MeeleefGezin voluntarily takes in a vulnerable Utrecht child one day (part) per week and one weekend per month.

A MeeleefGezin (this can also be a MeeleefStel or MeeleefSingle!) focuses on children up to 4 years old of parents with mental vulnerability. They can and want to take care of their child(ren), but raising them costs these parents a lot of energy. Because their child is cared for on a structural basis, the parents get some breathing space.

Stable second environment

The MeeleefGezin ensures that the child lives in a familiar and stable 'second' environment. The child is seen and heard. This stimulates healthy development and helps to build a good relationship with their parents.

Professional support

As a MeeleefGezin you are not alone. Care professionals from Buurtteams Utrecht, Koos or Spoor030 guide the pairing of both families and they remain involved after the match to offer support. As a MeeleefOuder(s) you will also receive training so that you are well prepared.

Sign up

Interested in making a difference for these vulnerable children? Then register for the non-binding online information evening on Wednesday evening, October 15 from 19.30:21.00 PM to XNUMX:XNUMX PM!
If this doesn't work or you have any questions, please contact us via Meeleefgegezin@buurtteamsutrecht.nl.
