Expand child protection and youth services
The SPD wants to strengthen child protection with uniform standards for all youth welfare offices and protection plans in all daycare centers and schools. Every school is to have access to youth services, and the state is to pay half the cost of school social work. More places are to be created in child and adolescent psychiatry.
The SPD wants to protect children better. All youth welfare offices should follow the same rules. Every daycare and school should have a child protection plan. The state should pay half of school social work. There should be more places for children with mental illness.
The recommendations of the state's child protection commission are to be implemented. The SPD wants incentives for protection plans in all facilities where young people regularly spend time. State-level planning for child and youth services is to be secured for the long term and coordinated with nonprofit and public providers. A coordinated strategy is to attract more staff to youth services. Besides inpatient places in child and adolescent psychiatry, the plans include day-clinic services, services for young adults, and more early detection and outpatient care.
