Pro Juventute helps children and young people and their parents to become socially responsible and independent individuals.
Pro Juventute provides local, direct and lasting support to children and young people in Switzerland thanks to the wide range of services it offers in the "Media & Consumption", "Education & Work" and "Leisure & Health" fields. Each year, more than 300,000 children throughout Switzerland benefit from services such as Pro Juventute's Advice + Help 147 emergency telephone service or Pro Juventute's parents' letters containing useful advice.
Pro Juventute is a private non-profit, politically and religiously independent organisation. With its national foundation and regional associations staffed by volunteers in the cantons, Pro Juventute is represented throughout Switzerland. Its work is governed by the principles of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
