Jugendamt in Dortmund is a city institution for families, children and young people, with wheelchair-accessible facilities. Its work connects family counselling, psychological support and youth welfare with practical help for everyday life. Child protection guidance includes a hotline for reporting immediate danger to children. The building also brings together advice on childcare, parenting costs and legal rules on parental contributions.

Support extends beyond counselling rooms into Dortmund’s neighbourhoods and youth projects. Adventure playgrounds, circus projects and playground sponsorships create opportunities for children to take part locally. Staff organise neighbourhood tours, while online services help young people and families with a migration background find support. Democracy projects and forums invite young people to shape Dortmund, and expanded daycare facilities strengthen early childhood education.
