Vacant job

HVB Ugglegatan is a smaller residence in Linköping with five apartments that offers a safe and individualized environment. Each resident has their own apartment in a shared stairwell, creating both independence and proximity to support. The residence is designed to provide intensive treatment and meet needs that traditional HVB homes may struggle to address.

HVB Ugglegatan welcomes girls and transgender individuals aged 14–20 from all over the country, and Ugglegatan Support Housing accepts youth aged 16-20 who have previously been placed due to psychosocial issues. The target group also includes individuals living in a conflict-ridden or otherwise unsatisfactory home situation.

To ensure high quality, we maintain a high staff-to-resident ratio with staff available around the clock, including awake night shifts. Our setup allows us to tailor support entirely based on the individual's needs and the social services' assignment formulation. As a natural extension of our operations, we also offer a smaller support housing option. Here, those ready for the next step toward independence can continue their development while retaining their previous contact persons and staff. The level of support in the support housing is adjusted according to individual needs to create a safe transition to adulthood.

As a social pedagogue in our operations, you will be part of a cheerful and competent team that is passionate about making a difference for our placed youth.

We work entirely individually with the residents and design treatment plans that match their circumstances and goals. Each step in the treatment is carefully planned and continuously evaluated to ensure the best possible results.

Our treatment model is based on evidence-based methods such as CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy). These methods form the foundation of our psychosocial treatment and are used to meet each individual's specific needs.

Requirements:

At least 2 years of post-secondary education in social work such as social pedagogue, behavioral scientist, or social worker.

• B driver's license

Preferred:

• Experience working with the target group, experience in HVB
