"The best interest of the child must come first." Kasam Familj has high competence and quality requirements. We conduct monthly self-assessments to ensure that we do what we say we do.

Kasam Familj is a privately owned company that operates on behalf of the Social Services with placed children and their parents and/or foster parents. Kasam Familj consists of the operations Kasam BUF, Stora-och Lilla Björn, Hemma hos familjen (open care) and Kasam BUP. Our theoretical foundation is based on system and attachment theory, and the salutogenic perspective shapes our work. Our existing operations are located in Skåne, Småland, and Blekinge.

Stora Björn is located in Fågelmara outside Karlskrona on a farm with stables and two larger residential buildings. In addition, there are annexes and a horse paddock. A few kilometers away is a bathing beach and a scenic environment.

Stora Björn is a treatment organization that works with clear frameworks, analysis of framework breaches, processes, and evidence-based methods. Within the treatment processes, a qualitative investigation basis is created, as the environment in the operation is homely and familial.

More about Kasam Familj

Our guiding principles are innovation, self-leadership, and courage.

Innovation includes changes in a business model and/or new perspectives. Innovation arises when we think from the needs of the operation, which is often “outside the box,” rather than how we usually do things. With the help of advice, understanding of the market, and the will to develop, one can develop products based on the child's needs, which also indirectly guide the needs of the operation.

Self-leadership means directing one's thoughts and behaviors towards goals (Bryant & Kazan 2012). Self-leadership involves an understanding of the current situation, the desired situation, and what you can do to get there. Understanding what you need to do (responsiveness and competence), prioritizing the order in which it should be done (prioritization work), and ensuring that you have good conditions to do it (responsibility). Self-leadership creates more employees than managers, and in this way, employees have less supervision. Employees are increasingly expected to plan their work and time without input from their managers. Employees are expected to see what needs to be done and to make their own decisions. This leads to less management and a greater need for leadership. Managers must adhere to and communicate “the big picture/value base” while employees must take greater responsibility for actually leading themselves.

Self-leadership places entirely different demands on organizational governance. How power and responsibility are distributed, how one communicates about the mission and purpose of the operation, etc.

Therefore, Kasam Familj's second guiding quote is:

"If you cannot lead yourself, no one else can do it either."

We are brave enough to demand from our surroundings (colleagues, clients, families/foster homes, external contacts, partners) in order to create conditions to meet the child's needs. We are brave enough to take responsibility for what is difficult and brave enough to ask for help when needed. For us, courage is colleagues who take initiative and act on their own.
