Foster Family & Emergency Foster Home Needed

Trygga Familjehem i Sverige AB is now seeking families/individuals who want to help children & young people ages 0-20. We are looking for both foster families and emergency foster homes. Being a Foster Family or Emergency Foster Home Being a foster family is interesting, challenging, and above all rewarding! It involves opening the doors to your home, your family, your daily life, and offering security, guidelines, rules, and most importantly lots of joy and heart, as well as a desire to share your life. Of course, this is a big challenge and requires a clear ambition to succeed. This ambition must be shared by all family members, and agreement on what the role entails is very important. It goes without saying that everyone is affected when a new person moves in and becomes part of the family. NOTE: A single person can also be an emergency foster or foster parent. Most importantly, you have a genuine interest in helping a child/young person toward a better life. You must also be able to work with all parties around the placed child/young person, such as school, social workers, family home consultants, etc. To manage a placement, you need to have a little extra of everything: space, time, and ability! Our requirements for you to begin a foster family assessment include: - That you do not appear in the police crime and suspect register, the social insurance agency's register regarding longer sick leave, the enforcement agency's register, or the social register in the past five years - That there is a spare bedroom that can be offered to the placed child, without anyone in the family giving up their bedroom. Note that shared spaces do not count as a bedroom. - That your housing is permanent, meaning you do not sublet, are subletting, or similar. The home is fully furnished and occupied. - That you are in good health and able to work - That you have stable income and 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, longer trips, new studies, pregnancy, or similar - That you speak Swedish Trygga Familjehem supports, guides, and trains As a foster family, you will receive Trygga Familjehem's basic training for foster families. The purpose is to make the placement as good as possible for both the placed person and the foster family. Our consultants are always nearby for ongoing guidance and training to the family during the placement. Your family home consultant visits you regularly, and you have close cooperation in everything concerning the placed person, such as implementation plans and contact with authorities. You have 24/7 phone support for any questions. Trygga Familjehem's working approach 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 solid compensation for the work you do. Compensation is paid in two parts: a cost reimbursement 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 up depending on the complexity of the placement. About Trygga Familjehem Trygga Familjehem offers consultant-supported emergency and foster home placements. All family home consultants have their own experience as emergency foster and foster parents, something we at Tryggafamiljehem i Sverige AB value highly.
