For all young people in Utrecht
We want every child in Utrecht to feel safe and happy. If you are concerned about something in your neighborhood or at school, we think it is important that you are listened to. That is why there is the Children’s Ombuds Desk for children and young people who live in the city of Utrecht. We will help you with your complaint about the municipality. If, for some reason, we are not able to help you with your complaint, we will always explain why.
We are there for you

Jory says: “Feel free to contact us, you can call us or just drop by on Thursday from 17-18 hours. We will think along with you and give advice.”
