Moorman is allocating 1.6 million euros for the new one over the next three years Amsterdam Approach to Divorce. “Unfortunately, children are often the victims of stress and worries when their parents separate. We increasingly see that youth care is used to support children while the cause of the problems is not addressed,” says Moorman.
Amsterdam councilor wants free teacher training: ‘Why only for police officers and soldiers?’
The approach must support divorcing parents, ‘so that their children feel more stability and support during this period’. This includes the aforementioned trial with free relationship therapy. In addition, there should be a central place for parents who are experiencing an unpleasant divorce.
Special teams
Through collaboration between various agencies, Moorman hopes that parents will receive appropriate help. From legal and financial aspects to educational advice. The help will be easily available from a ‘relationship and divorce team’
For the time being, the teams will only be available in the Center and South districts.
