Social Work
By contacting a social worker, you can have your service needs assessed and be offered support in order to have a good and functioning everyday life based on your life situation. Social workers can assess the service needs of children, families, adults, and the elderly, and on the basis of the assessment offer services with the purpose of facilitating the clients’ everyday life.

Child and family social work may become necessary when problems arise in family situations. A family may contact a social worker to discuss their circumstances on their own initiative.
