Trygga Familjehem i Sverige AB is now recruiting families and individual persons who want to help children and young people ages 0-20. We are looking for both family foster homes and emergency foster homes. Being a Foster Home or Emergency Foster Home Being a family foster home is interesting, challenging, and above all rewarding! It involves opening the doors to your home, your family, your everyday life, and offering security, guidelines, rules, and most importantly, a lot of joy and compassion, as well as a desire to share your life. Of course, this is a significant challenge and requires a clear commitment to succeed. This commitment must be shared by all family members, and a shared understanding of what the role entails is very important. It is true that everyone is affected when a new person moves in and becomes part of the family. Note that a single person can also be an emergency or family foster parent. The most important thing is that you have a genuine interest in helping a child or young person build a better life. You must also be able to collaborate with all actors around the placed child or young person, such as school, social workers, family home consultants, and others. To manage a placement, you need a little extra of everything: space, time, and ability! Our requirements for you to begin a family home assessment include: That you do not appear in the police's crime and suspicion register, the insurance office's register regarding extended sick leave, the enforcement authority's register, or the social register in the past five years That there is a spare bedroom available for the placed child, without anyone in the family having to give up their bedroom. Note that shared spaces do not count as bedrooms. That your residence is permanent, meaning you do not rent from someone else, are a tenant in someone else's home, or similar. The residence is fully furnished and well-maintained. That you are in good health and able to work That you have stable income and financial support That at least one of you has time for meetings with social services and our family home consultants That you do not have any major upcoming changes in your life, such as moving, extended travel, new studies, pregnancy, or similar That you are fluent in Swedish Trygga Familjehem Supports, Guides, and Trains As a family foster home, you will receive Trygga Familjehem's basic training for foster families. The aim is to make the placement as good as possible for both the placed person and the foster family. Our consultants are always on hand for ongoing guidance and training to your family during the placement. Your family home consultant visits you regularly, and you will have close collaboration regarding everything related to the placed person, such as implementation plans and contacts with authorities. To help you, we offer 24/7 support by phone for any questions you may have. Trygga Familjehem's approach and attitude is to be available, provide support, help, ideas, and motivation! Good Financial Compensation Opening your home to a child, young person, or young adult is not about money, but about helping someone who needs a safe and stable life. However, you should receive fair compensation for the work you do. Compensation is paid in two parts: an expense allowance of approximately 6,500 kr/month to cover food, clothing, travel, etc., and a fee for the work you perform. The fee varies from 26,000 kr/month and upward depending on the complexity of the placement. About Trygga Familjehem Trygga Familjehem offers consultant-supported emergency and family foster placements. All family home consultants have personal experience being emergency and family foster parents, something we at Trygga Familjehem i Sverige AB value highly. Are you interested in becoming an emergency foster parent or family foster parent? Recruitment is ongoing. Visit our website for more information and to apply! Or email us at [email protected]
