Tilskot til foreldrestøttande tiltak

This grant program from the Norwegian Directorate for Children, Youth and Family Affairs (Bufdir) supports municipalities in implementing parent-support measures. The program aims to strengthen parents in their parental role and contribute to making them good caregivers for their children, thereby preventing children from being exposed to violence, abuse, or neglect. Municipalities can apply for up to three years of support for various activities including: knowledge-based parental guidance programs, relationship courses for first-time parents called 'Godt samliv', low-threshold parental support initiatives such as meeting places and relief measures, and certification/training for personnel. The target group is parents with children aged 0-18 years. For 2026, the program has allocated 55.28 million Norwegian kroner, with 21.63 million available for new applicants. Applications for 2026 can be two-year (2026-2027), though approval for 2027 is not guaranteed as the program will merge into a new prevention program from 2027 onwards.
