At Elisabethgården, we conduct investigations on behalf of the social services regarding children's needs and parents' ability to meet those needs. Our target group is children aged 0-16 years along with their parents.

The investigations follow the BBIC investigation structure with elements of Signs of Safety and are based on interaction observations between parents and children. We base our approach on ICDP and TMO. Today, Elisabethgården has framework agreements with over 190 municipalities in Sweden.

During an investigation placement, the family is placed for 10-14 weeks. A team consisting of an investigator and two qualified contact persons is appointed, and they are responsible for planning activities for the family during their time at Elisabethgården.
