Wmo (Wet maatschappelijke ondersteuning)

Wet maatschappelijke ondersteuning (Wmo) is a Dutch law that provides support to people with disabilities, chronic illnesses, or age-related issues to live independently and participate in society. It offers services such as personal care, assistance with household tasks, transportation, and adaptations to homes or public spaces. The goal is to help individuals maintain their independence, well-being, and social connections. Wmo support is arranged by local municipalities and tailored to each person's needs, ensuring they can lead a fulfilling life within their community.
