Municipality of Wassenaar: applying for a personal budget (pgb)
Please note: you can only apply for a PGB if you live in the Netherlands and are registered with a municipality.
You can use a persoonsgebonden budget – PGB (personal budget) to buy care, help or support.
There are 2 types of personal budget:
PGB via the Wet maatschappelijke ondersteuning – WMO (Social Support Act)
Do you receive Wmo support from your municipality? Do you want to arrange this help yourself? Then you can apply for a PGB from your municipality.
PGB through the Jeugdwet (Youth Act)
If your child receives support under the Jeugdwet, you can use a personal budget to arrange that help yourself as well. You can apply for it through your municipality’s jeugdhelp (youth assistance) service.
How to apply for a PGB:
- Support via the WMO can be applied for via Gemeente Wassenaar | Wassenaar
- Support via the Jeugdwet can be applied for via Gemeente Wassenaar | Wassenaar
Your municipality will inform you within 8 weeks of their decision.
