Work and Income Newsletter (January 2024)
In this newsletter, you can read all about (new) developments and opportunities in the areas of work, income, assistance with making ends meet and/or debts, and other support from the municipality.
That applies to me!
The VoorzieningenWijzer (Benefits Guide) helps you with municipal schemes, allowances and a suitable energy contract and health insurance. This way you can easily have € 600 more to spend per year. At datgeldtvoormij.nl/tytsjerksteradiel you can easily and anonymously see what you are entitled to. Then you can immediately submit an application. You can also go to the website to compare your health insurance or energy supplier.
Need help?
Request an advisory consultation on the site or contact Humanitas by telephone at 06-22709903 or email at ta.nof@humanitas.nl. An advisor will review all the regulations with you and see what you are eligible for.

Shortened assistance programs for debt assistance
As of July 1, 2023, the duration of the statutory debt restructuring (WSNP) and the amicable debt settlement process has been adjusted from 36 months to 18 months.
The shorter duration lowers the barrier to applying for a debt assistance program. Do you need help paying off your debts? Please contact the Debt Assistance department at 14 0511 to make an appointment for a free consultation. Together, we will look for a solution.
Preventing debts
KEaRN Amargi helps to prevent debt and worries about money. A trained volunteer will visit you at home and, together with you, restore calm and order to your finances. For example, by listing your income and expenses or by clearing up overdue mail. Where necessary, he or she will help you on your way to further assistance and support. More information? Please contact us on 06–22709903 or send an email to amargi@kearn.nl.
Save energy
We pay more each year for gas, electricity, and water. By using less of these, you can save a considerable amount of money. Would you like a lower energy bill and more comfort in your home? Then talk to an Energy Coach.
Energy Tour
In the coming period, our mobile Energy Truck will be at various locations in the municipality. An energy coach will be available to give you tips and advice on how to save energy. Small adjustments to your home or changes to your habits can save you energy. For example, installing weather strips, turning down the heating at night, or showering for less time will lower your energy bill.
The advice is free. You can walk in without an appointment.
Would you prefer a consultation with an Energy Coach at your home?
You can easily request this on the Energy Coach page or by calling 14 0511.
