NGTS or Youth Guarantee Support System
The Youth Guarantee support system specialist (youth case manager, youth welfare specialist ) is there to support and assist young people aged 13-29 in their area who are inactive or excluded from the labour market or education for any reason. Together with the young person, we will identify the concerns and obstacles and then start to find solutions together.

How does it work?
NGTS work with young people starts with referral. To start, contact an NGTS worker. They can be contacted by phone, email, social media and follow up:
The meetings focus on the young person's wishes and needs to support the achievement of long-term goals. It is not just about pursuing an education or finding a job, but also about the opportunity to engage in self-discovery and motivation.
