Family Foster Homes & Emergency Care Homes Wanted

Trygga Familjehem i Sverige AB is now seeking families/individuals who want to help children and young people aged 0-20. We are looking for both family foster homes and emergency care homes. Being a Foster Home or Emergency Care Home Being a foster home is interesting, challenging, and above all rewarding! It's about opening the doors to your home, your family, your everyday 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 significant challenge and requires a clear commitment to succeed. This ambition must be shared by all family members, and alignment on what the assignment entails is of great importance. 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 care or foster home provider. Most importantly, you must have a genuine interest in helping a child/young person build a better life. You must also be able to collaborate with all actors around the placed child/young person, such as schools, social workers, foster care coordinators, and others. To manage a placement, you need a little extra of everything: space, time, and capability! Our requirements for you to begin a foster home assessment include: That you do not appear in the police crime and suspicion register, the social insurance agency's register regarding longer sick leave periods, the Kronofogden register, or the social register in the past five years That there is an available bedroom that can be offered to the placed child, without any family member having to give up their own bedroom. Note that common areas do not count as bedrooms. That your housing is permanent, meaning you don't sublet, are a lodger, or similar. The residence is fully furnished and livable. 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 us foster care coordinators That you do not have any major upcoming life changes, such as moving, extended trips, new studies, pregnancy, or similar That you are fluent in Swedish Trygga Familjehem Supports, Guides, and Trains As a foster home provider, you will receive Trygga Familjehem's basic training for foster homes. The purpose is to make the placement as good as possible for both the placed child and the foster home. Our coordinators are always nearby for ongoing guidance and training to the family during the placement. Your foster care coordinator will visit you regularly, and you will have close collaboration in everything concerning the placed child, such as implementation plans and authority contacts. You will have 24/7 phone support for any questions. Trygga Familjehem's 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 still 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 work fee for the work you perform. The fee varies from 26,000 kr/month and upward depending on the complexity of the placement.

All foster care coordinators have personal experience being emergency care and foster home providers, which we at Tryggafamiljehem i Sverige AB value highly.
