De Sprong
Being young and feeling stuck often go together. De Sprong is for young adults looking for direction, work or stability.

- For young people 18 to 27
- Direction & opportunity
- Guidance that gets it
For young people 18 to 27
We help you find direction with work, housing and your future. No pressure, just someone who understands where you are.
No judgement, real understanding
Practical help and personal growth
Safe and trusted
Building your future together
Who is this for?
- Young people aged 18 to 27 stuck with school, work or home
- Anyone without overview of money, housing or the future
- Young adults who need a coach who understands their situation
How does it work?
Three steps, at your pace:
Your pace
No pressure. Clear agreements you can recognise yourself in.
Practical and personal
Administration, job search, confidence: all in one conversation.
Building a network
We connect you with people and places that fit your plans.
Being young is enough. You do not have to do it alone.
From guidance to a learning placement
Within De Sprong we help you with direction and confidence, and with the next step: an internship or BBL training in social work. As a recognised learning company, some young people learn with us in real practice, right here in Den Helder.
- Practice in a warm, safe setting
- Guidance that respects your pace
- A path that fits your plans
Are you over 27?
De Nieuwe Start is often a better fit, including BBL, career change or re-entry. You are not too late; this programme simply targets a younger age group.
