Key figures on youth care

This table describes the number of young people with youth care and the number of pathways in which youth care has been provided in kind. Young people with youth care are also shown as a percentage of the total number of young people. The numbers of young people and pathways can be broken down by the different forms of youth care and by the municipality responsible for youth care according to the principle of residence Youth. The total number of young people with whom the percentage is calculated depends on the type of aid: youth Care: 0 to 23 years old youth support: 0 to 23 years old youth protection:0 to 18 years old youth probation:12 to 23 years old The addition of the number of young people over multiple forms of youth care within a (sub)total can be greater than the (sub)total itself. A young person may have multiple pathways with different forms of youth care, but for each form of care or (sub)total, a young person only counts once.

The figures for 2015-2020 are in a separate table due to a trend break, which can be found via the link ‘Tabellen Youth Care’ in paragraph 3. Section 4 provides more information on issues affecting comparability over time of the figures in this table. Status of the figures: The figures for the first half of 2022 are provisional.
